CHMP (Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use)

The Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use (CHMP) is a group within the European Medicines Agency (EMA) responsible for evaluating the safety, quality, and effectiveness of medicines intended for human use. Their role is to review scientific data submitted by pharmaceutical companies to determine whether a medicine should be approved for use across the European Union. The CHMP provides recommendations to ensure that medicines are safe, effective, and of high quality, helping to protect public health. Their work is essential in ensuring that new medicines meet rigorous standards before reaching patients.
