Need for Regulatory Reforms to improve contraceptive access and workforce participation... ➡️India's family planning landscape has long been dominated by female sterilization which accounts for 67 percent of the modern contraceptive use. ➡️The regulatory issues stem from the fact that over the counter policy in India is still under consideration and earlier two committees of Drug Consultative Committee (DCC) have submitted their reports and the status of over the counter for contraceptives is achieved in implied manner by providing certain exemptions for 5 chemical compositions of oral contraceptives under the schedule K of the Drug and Cosmetic Act. ➡️Due to this confusion, these above discussions feature many times in the Drug and Technical advisory board (DTAB) meetings, including recently in the 91th DTAB meeting in September2024.Download minutes: 91st DTAB held on 14-09-2024 However, most discussion on these happen in context of 2 out of the 5 chemical compositions added in the schedule K, incidentally only those that feature in public distribution system, and hence labelling issues effects the private sector more. #regulatoryaffairs #contraceptives #reforms #clinicaltrials #clinicalresearch

Emergency and Hormonal Contraceptive Regulations IN EFFECT AS OF TODAY Emergency and hormonal contraceptives regulations were codified and posted to the state website today, Dec. 27, 2024, which is the effective date. Therefore, as of today, any duly trained and certified pharmacist may prescribe and any pharmacist may dispense hormonal and emergency contraceptives in the State of Connecticut. The final approved and posted regulation can be seen here: https://lnkd.in/ev-pX7m9 A Note from the CEO It has been a long road getting this law and these regulations approved, codified, and posted, but, as of today, Connecticut joins 29 other states and the District of Columbia in giving pharmacists this authority. It has taken a concentrated and focused effort to bring it to fruition. Virtually every pharmacy-related advocacy group in the state supported and advocated for this authority, enabling a unified pharmacy community to speak up and speak out. And DCP worked to design a legal and regulatory structure that protects patients while expanding access to hormonal and emergency contraception across the state. But, as they say, our work is not done! Pharmacists must not simply have the authority to provide these services, but a reimbursement model that makes it practical and possible. Our next goal is to ensure that pharmacists are fully and fairly reimbursed not simply for the product and a small dispensing fee, but for the clinical services that support it. Happy New Year! --Nathan Tinker, CEO
