NAVIGATING THE REGULATORY LANDSCAPE

Step-by-Step Registration Process

Obtain an Authorized Representative

A foreign manufacturer must first obtain an authorized representative in India. The authorized representative will be responsible for registering the drugs and ensuring that they comply with Indian regulations.

Classify the Drug

The first step in the registration process is to classify the drug. The drug will be classified as either a Schedule X drug, a Schedule Y drug, or a Schedule Z drug. The classification of the drug will determine the level of regulatory scrutiny that it will be subject to.

Submit an Application

The foreign manufacturer must then submit an application to the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) for registration of the drug. The application must include a variety of information, such as the name of the drug, the composition of the drug, the manufacturing process, and the clinical data for the drug.

Conduct Clinical Trials

If the drug is a new drug, the foreign manufacturer will need to conduct clinical trials in India to demonstrate the safety and efficacy of the drug. The clinical trials must be conducted in accordance with the guidelines of the CDSCO.

Obtain Approval

Once the application has been reviewed and approved by the CDSCO, the drug will be granted registration. The registration will be valid for five years and can be renewed.

Marketing in India

Once the process is completed the products can successfully market and sell in India. The IAR must ensure compliance with reporting changes, adverse events, recalls, to the CDSCO, if any.
