REITERATING MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR NO. 008, S. 1988 (RE: DRUG AND MEDICAL DEVICE REGISTRATION)



It has been noted by the Bureau of Food and Drugs that there have been an upsurge of findings involving drug establishments specifically drugstores or hospital pharmacies that manufacture, offer for sale, sell, distribute or transfer unregistered drugs and medical devices in violation of Section 11 in relation to Section 21, B of R.A. 3720, as amended by E.O. No. 175, otherwise known as the Foods, Drugs and Devices and Cosmetic Act.

Accordingly, all concerned are reminded to be extra-careful in seeing to it that the drugs and medical devices they offer for sale or sell to the consuming public are BFAD-registered.  Consequently, they must ascertain and require BFAD Certificate of Product Registration before purchasing stocks of drugs or medical devices. "All concerned are WARNED that violation of the registration requirements will subject the person responsible to criminal prosecution in addition to the imposition of administrative sanctions by BFAD".

For strict compliance and implementation.

Adopted: 30 March 2004
