UK still permitting unregistered herbal medicines
London (UK), Oldenburg, Münster (Germany), 14. May 2012 – It is still the case that not all herbal products used in the UK for medicinal purposes have been licensed as medicinal products. "A year after the end of the transitional period on 30 April 2011, many manufacturers have still failed to upgrade their products to medicinal product status. As a result, these products are still not subject to the quality and safety requirements which are important for improving patient safety,” explains Dr. Sven Oliver Kruse from the medicinal product laboratory at Diapharm (www.diapharm.com). Diapharm has offices in the UK, Germany, Austria and Romania, and one of the company’s services is to test and develop herbal medicines (THMPs), food supplements and medical devices. >> more
