00:00The European Commission has ordered the cessation of the commercialization of 400 generic drugs.
00:05The reason?
00:06The generic drugs would have obtained their commercialization authorization
00:09after the presentation of an evaluation carried out by Synapse Labs.
00:13However, Indian society would provide erroneous studies,
00:16according to the European Medicines Agency.
00:18Out of 400 drugs, 72 are sold in France.
00:22The National Drug Safety Agency must now examine each case.
00:27In the absence of alternatives for certain generic drugs concerned,
00:30the EMA allows national authorities to postpone the suspension until a maximum of two years,
00:35in the interest of the patients.
00:37The European Medicines Agency, after launching the alert,
00:40seeks to temper its words by underlining that there is no evidence of harmfulness
00:44or a lack of effectiveness of incriminated drugs.
00:47Despite everything, the incident may cause a distrust among the population.
00:51Unlike the original drugs, generic drugs do not go through clinical trials,
00:56but are evaluated by research organizations under contract.
00:59Europe largely depends on CROs based outside its borders,
01:03mainly in North America, South Africa and India.
