Regulatory Affairs in the UAE

Accelerating Compliance, Market Access, and Growth in the UAE Pharmaceutical Sector

At MEPHARMA, we understand the critical role regulatory affairs play in the success of pharmaceutical companies operating in the UAE. With evolving guidelines, high compliance expectations, and competitive market dynamics, navigating the regulatory landscape requires more than knowledge—it requires strategic insight and proven expertise.

• MOHAP (Ministry of Health and Prevention)
• DHA (Dubai Health Authority)

We ensure your products meet the UAE’s complex and evolving regulatory requirements, securing timely approvals and long-term market viability.
