Medicinal products; notification of manufacture without a license

If the manufacture of medicinal products is intended, for which a license according to Section 13 of the German Medicines Act (AMG) is not required, the medicinal products must be notified with their designation and composition.

Description

A license according to Section 13 (1) of the German Medicines Act (AMG) is not required for physicians or non-medical practitioners if the medicinal products are manufactured under their direct professional responsibility for the purpose of personal use on a specific patient. However, the manufacture of medicinal products is subject to notification under Section 67 (2) of the AMG.

The persons concerned must notify the competent authority of their planned activity. The authority checks whether the activity is subject to authorization, if applicable.
