Many divisions control regulations and advertising of health products in the UK. These authorities comprise Trading Standards/Environmental Health (banned/borderline substances), Food Standards Agency (safety), and Advertising Standards Authority or ASA (marketing/label claims). However, the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) determines if ingredients are medicinal or foods or whether they are banned substances. The Borderline Panel is responsible for ascertaining if a particular product should be deemed medicinal.
With these apex regulatory agencies, qualifying for entry into the UK market seems a challenge. Don’t worry. Regulatory Compliance professionals at Quality Smart Solutions will help you figure out whether your ingredients are safe, and they are classified as borderline. We will also determine if the claims you make on your packaging and advertising come within the ambit of EFSA adoption regulations introduced by the Advertising Standards Authority.
