The “Safety features” element of EUFMD (FMD2011/62/EU) and Delegated Regulation (20016/161) What Pharmacies in Northern Ireland (NI) need to know and do?

For Northern Irish Pharmacies FMD requirements have not changed and they must continue to verify and decommission their “2D” barcoded pack Safety features.

The “ NI Protocol” required that NI must have serialised packs for at least another 4 years until it is reviewed.
