Access programme

Free access for national regulators and public QC labs

The institutions defending against substandard and falsified medicines deserve the same document-checking capacity as any commercial buyer, regardless of budget.

Who is eligible

  • National medicines regulatory authorities
  • Ministries of health
  • National public quality-control laboratories

In countries classified by the World Bank as low-income. Institutional applicants only; an official institutional e-mail address is required.

What is included

Up to 300 automated analyses per month, the full seven-section reports, at no charge, for as long as the eligibility holds.

Why

WHO estimates at least 1 in 10 medical products in low- and middle-income countries is substandard or falsified (estimate first published 2017). The capacity to check paperwork should not be concentrated where the problem is smallest.

How to apply

Applications are reviewed manually and answered within one week. We may ask for verification of institutional identity. We do not name participating institutions publicly without written permission.

Commercial organisations: the free tier gives every account five automated analyses a month, no card required.
