Communication 572 about the "contact-point”

Communication 572 (French version) of the FAMHP reminds readers of the existence and the working methods of the “contact-point” and its role in implementing the regulations in the fight against excessive promotion of medicines and medical devices.

Following the publication in the “Moniteur belge” of 8th February 2010 the Royal Decree of 19th January 2010 amending the Royal Decree of 10th June 2006 establishing the contact-point referred to in Article 10, § 5 of the Act of 25th March 1964 on medicines, the FAMHP has been repeatedly asked about the practical arrangements to be followed when transmitting information to the “contact-point”.

Communication 572 aims to remind readers of the existence of the “contact-point ", its role and its working methods. It also provides details on the ways of communicating information to the “contact-point”.
This is one of the key bodies to ensure the control of the enforcement of regulations in the fight against excessive promotion of medicines and medical devices.
