The Organization of Eastern Caribbean States\/Pharmaceutical Procurement Service (OECS\/PPS) is announcing a new partnership with the Caribbean Public Health Agency\/ Caribbean Regulatory System (CARPHA\/CRS) that will require all anti-retroviral (ARVs) medicines to receive approval by the CRS in order to participate in the upcoming OECS\/PPS ARV tender in June of 2019.<\/p>\n

The CRS is a regional regulatory mechanism, endorsed by Ministers of Health from CARICOM states, that is implemented in technical collaboration with the Pan American Health Organization\/World Health Organization (PAHO\/WHO). The CRS seeks to increase the number of quality products on the CARICOM market through reliance on a select group of reference authorities for medicines approvals, including the US Food and Drug Administration and WHO Prequalification Program.<\/p>\n
