MedDRA is a rich and highly specific standardised medical terminology first developed in the late 1990s. It is now updated twice per year in 27 languages.<\/p>

MedDRA facilitates the sharing of regulatory information internationally for medical products used by humans, including pharmaceuticals, vaccines and drug-device combination products.<\/p>

A powerful tool, MedDRA is used for registration, documentation and safety monitoring of medical products before and after a product has been authorised for use.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\"\"\/\t\t\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n
