EMA´s landingpage IDMP on implementation of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) identification of medicinal products (IDMP) standards has been launched.
There are described the common standards, formats and terminologies which should be used in the European Union (EU) to identify and exchange pharmacovigilance and medicinal product information. This is a legally binding requirement from the EU pharmaceutical legislation for Member States, marketing-authorisation holders and the European Medicines Agency (EMA).
