UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency

The UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) is the government body responsible for ensuring the safety, quality, and effectiveness of medicines, medical devices, and healthcare products in the UK. It reviews and approves new medicines before they can be sold, monitors their safety after they are on the market, and regulates medical devices to ensure they meet necessary standards. The MHRA’s role is to protect public health by making sure healthcare products are safe and effective for use, supporting innovation while maintaining strict regulatory oversight.
