International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH)

The International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) is a collaboration between regulatory authorities and the pharmaceutical industry from Europe, Japan, and the United States. Established to improve the efficiency of drug development and approval, ICH aims to harmonize guidelines for the safety, efficacy, and quality of medicines. By creating consistent standards, ICH helps ensure that drugs are safe and effective across different regions, facilitating their global development and accessibility while protecting public health.
