European Medicines Agency (EMA)

The European Medicines Agency (EMA) is a regulatory body in the European Union responsible for the evaluation and supervision of medicines. Its main role is to ensure that medicines are safe, effective, and of high quality before they can be sold to the public. The EMA assesses new drugs, oversees clinical trials, and monitors the safety of medications once they are on the market. By providing scientific advice and supporting innovation, the EMA helps protect public health while facilitating access to important new treatments in Europe.
