The Russian Federation has issued a notification under Article 10.6, informing about the extension of the deadline for implementing a temporary procedure for the circulation of medicines within the Eurasian Economic Union.

The Eurasian Economic Commission's Draft Decision aims to amend certain provisions, extending the deadline until December 31, 2024. The objective is to ensure the marketing authorization of medicines in the face of geopolitical instability, safeguarding the life and health of the population and ensuring the sustainability of drug supply.
