Infamed has banned the export of more than 160 presentations of quetiapine, an antipsychotic, and about 50 other medicines, including antibiotics and drugs to treat cancer, according to circular that enters into force Friday.
Supply problems, which had already been reported by the regulator, are due to the suspension of manufacturing imposed by a microbial contamination detected in a manufacturer in Greece.
The measure covers dozens of medicines, including antibiotics, vaccines and drugs used in the treatment of cancer. The suspension comes into force this Friday and aims to ensure the supply of the national market.
