PRESCRIBER / NON-PRESCRIBER
Support from pharmaceutical partners helps make this event possible. As such, it is important that we
comply with the various codes and directives relating to the manufacturing, distribution, and marketing
of pharmaceutical products. The European Union directive (2001/83/EC, article 86) provides guidelines
relating to medicinal products for human use. Within these guidelines is the restriction that access to
pharmaceutical product marketing activities must be limited to only those participants
licensed/authorised to prescribe or supply medicinal products. All participants, with the exception of
the exhibitors, are asked the following question during registration: Are you licensed/authorised to
prescribe or supply prescription only medicines?
