Multiple trade groups representing the pharmaceuticals industry in Europe have issued a joint statement calling on the UK and European Union to agree to a Brexit transition period.

The missive, signed by all of the major pharma associations including EFPIA, EuropaBio and the ABPI, stressed the importance of cooperation on medicines regulation in order to safeguard patients’ access to medicines.

The purpose of a  transition period would be to provide adequate time for companies and government agencies to adapt to changes and to avoid any disruption to the supply of medicines.
