Pharmaceuticals
Trilegal has advised on a spectrum of complex and strategic matters, leveraging its regulatory expertise and network with regulatory healthcare authorities to provide clients pragmatic and solution-oriented litigation and competition advice.
India has a robust pharmaceutical industry comprising a diverse range of players that are significant contributors to the economy. As the sector continues to grow, the government has also been taking steps to streamline regulatory procedures. In 2022, the government released a draft of the New Drugs, Medical Devices and Cosmetics Bill to address the changing requirements of the industry and support technological innovation. The bill proposes a new definition for over-the-counter drugs, manufacturers, clinical trials, medical devices, and more to ensure the quality, safety, efficacy, and performance of new drugs.
Trilegal has developed extensive experience in navigating this complex and consistently evolving regulatory environment in the pharmaceutical industry and is committed to providing clients with innovative and effective legal solutions. Our pharmaceutical practice provides a comprehensive range of legal services.
