Explanatory Note

The main purpose of these Regulations is to update the controls applicable to the prescription and supply of medicinal products to the public. The Regulations are also intended to establish the classification for supply of medicinal products with a view to giving effect, on an on-going basis, to E.C. Council Directive 92/26/EEC of 31st March, 1992 concerning the classification for the supply of medicinal products for human use (O.J. No. L 113, 30.4.92, p.5).

The Regulations apply an up-to-date and comprehensive system of control to medicinal products and identify those products which may only be supplied on medical prescription. The circumstances excluding medicinal products from prescription control are also specified and incorporates a pharmacy-only category into which most such non-prescription products now fall.

The Regulations up-date the list of medicinal products subject to prescription control and de-regulate certain other products which were previously subject to prescription control. In recognition of Ireland's position as part of the E.U. Internal Market, the term "supply" has been defined in the broader context, so that the controls apply equally to supplies made to persons in the State and to persons who may at the time be in another Member State of the European Union. In this connection also, the supply of medicinal products by mail order is prohibited.

In addition the Regulations set out the restrictions relating to the dispensing of prescriptions, the conditions for emergency supply of prescription-only medicinal products by pharmacists, the requirements for the labelling of dispensed medicinal products and for pharmacy records and a prohibition on the supply of medicinal products after their expiry dates.
