Characteristics of pharmaceutical policy– Rests on four fundamental pillars
– The pillars are aligned with the 3 priorities of health policy established by the FederalGovernment.
– Its main objective is to improve access of the population to a well-supplied drug market thatoffers innovative and generic medicines at the best prices.
Pillars of Pharmaceutical Policy Government’s Health Policy Priorities
A regulatory agency that guarantees thesafety, quality and eficacy of all drugs.
1. Effective Access2. Service Quality
3. Prevention
A reliable scheme to authorize sanitary registrations.
Removal of barriers to market entry forproducts that are safe and of high quality.
Harmonization of the sanitary agency with bestinternational practices.
Evolution of the Mexican Pharmaceutical RegulationDuring this period the marketauthorizations for medicines hadindefinite duration and without the legalobligation to be bioequivalent.
1. The legal requirement of bioequivalence is implemented.
2. A netwrork of laboratories is created to perform bioequivalence tests through Authorized Third Parties.

Benefits of Authorized Third Parties• Third Parties issue a “Pre-dictamination” certificate, which must be submitted together with the
complete paperwork when filing for a New Registration, an Extension or a Modification to anexistent Registration to Cofepris.
• The “Pre-dictamination” certificate of Third Parties allow to reduce signifcantly the processingtime of each individual filing. For example, in the case of new registrations the processing time wasreduced by an average of approximately 2 years.

Innovation policyAgreement for the promotion of innovation
• The Mexican Government established an innovation policy relying on regulatory cooperation amongdifferent sanitary agencies in order to expedite the entry of new drugs to Mexico. This policy consists of:
1. Equivalence Agreements of new drugs with the US, Canada, Australia, Switzerland and theEuropean Union.
2. To encourage clinical research, Mexico substituted the requirement of a foreign free sale certificate witha report of clinical studies in Mexican population.

Deregulation program of Medical Devices• The Medical Devices Desregulation program implemented by COFEPRIS, gives the
following results:
Issuance of Registrations through Equivalence Agreements
Received Applications 4,824
Market Value of the applications 417.5 million dollars in the Mexican market(2.09 million pesos each registration).
Reduction in the Regulatory Burden 40%

• The scheme is based upon the recognition of the registrations issued by FDA,Health Canada, and Japan for medical devices of any class and COFEPRIS willissue the corresponding registration in a maximum period of 30 working days.
• To this date 3,681 sanitary registrations have been approved by COFEPRIS.
27
Recognition of foreign Certificates for Good Manufacturing Practices
Considering the high impact of the on site visits on the process of approval and renewal ofsanitary registrations, Mexico published on June 22, 2011 guidelines to expedite andfacilitate the process:
1• The certificates of GMP´s issued by FDA (USA), ANVISA (Brazil), Health Canada,
Pharmaceutical and Food Safety Bureau (Japan), TGA (Australia) and EMA independentlyof the country where the manufacturing plant is located will be recognized by COFEPRIS.
2• The on site verification of GMPs from COFEPRIS will be issued in favor of the
manufacturing plant or the firm in question and not the firm doing the import.
3• Consequently, the recognized GMPs by COFEPRIS could be used by any economic agent
to obtain the sanitary registration or the corresponding extension.

Intellectual Property Rights in Mexico• An international comparison shows that Mexico is a trailblazer regarding the protection of intellectual
property rights.• According to the Global Intellectual Property Center (GIPC) Index of the U.S. Chamber of
Commerce, Mexico is ranked the highest among Latin American countries.• This index measures three different types of intellectual property rights: patents, trademarks and
copyright. It indicates the gaps between advances in legislations and their enforcement.

Recognition of sanitary registrations abroad
In its fight against informality, the Ministry of Health proposed the following reforms tothe regulation of the Health Law regarding advertisement:
• To require sanitary registration and/or advertisement permission to announcers in order toadvertise products.
• To require the media to cease in 24 hours the advertisement for a product or service thatdoes not comply with the legal provisions.
• Increase in 400% the sanctions imposed for not complying with the provisions of theregulation.
The reform was published in the Official Gazette on January 19, 2012 and it wasenabled on March 2, 2012.
