All non-EEA must meet our rigorous checks to be approved as a bonafide partner, ensuring they hold all the relevant licences to import medicine from the EEA, by the respective local Healthcare Authorities.

CLINICAL TRIALS SUPPLY

Clinical trials are research studies performed in people that are aimed at evaluating a medical, surgical, or behavioral intervention. They are the primary way that researchers find out if a new treatment, like a new drug or diet or medical device (for example, a pacemaker) is safe and effective in people.

PURA (UK) Ltd, are experts in procuring clinical trial batches through our network of suppliers, meeting all specified criteria’s; minimum quantity, minimum batch sizes, minimum expiration and Certificates of Analysis (CoA).

CONTROLLED DRUGS

A controlled substance is generally a drug or chemical whose manufacture, possession, or use is regulated by a government, such as illicitly used drugs or prescription medications that are designated by law. Substances are classified according to schedules and consist primarily of potentially psychoactive substances.

COLD CHAIN

A range of medicines need to be refrigerated. These include insulins, antibiotic liquids, injections, eye drops and some creams. These medicines must be stored between 2ºC and 8ºC.

UNLICENCED MEDICINE

A special unlicensed medicine is one that is manufactured without a marketing authorisation (MA) from the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). An MA (or product licence) is granted by the MHRA only once a medicinal product has been proven to be safe and effective.

VACCINES

Immunologic agents are drugs that can modify the immune response, either by enhancing or suppressing the immune system. They are used to fight infections, prevent and treat certain diseases. Immunologic agents include drugs used for immunosuppression to prevent graft rejection.

GENERIC MEDICINE

A generic drug is a medication created to be the same as an existing approved brand-name drug in dosage form, safety, strength, route of administration, quality, and performance characteristics. Generic medicines work the same as brand-name medicines.

PURA (UK) Ltd has direct access to leading brands of generic medicine.

BLOOD-DERIVED MEDICINE

A blood-derived medicine is any medicine made from human blood or plasma. To produce medicines, blood plasma undergoes fractionation, a procedure used to extract individual protein plasma components.
