How To Prepare For A Brexit No Deal: Medical Products

The First Minister of Scotland spoke out this week over the uncertainty surrounding the supply of medicines and the implications for the National Health Service of Scotland when the UK leaves the EU in a few months time.

Nicola Sturgeon said: “It’s now time the UK Government came clean on the scale of the cost to our health service. The Prime Minister failed to guarantee there would be no interruption in medicine supplies after Brexit. This came after UK ministers published a truncated tender, at a cost of tens of millions of pounds, associated with medicines stockpiling. There is no good Brexit for our health service. Even with a deal we face a loss of millions of pounds in research funding which could hit clinical trials. The situation will be extremely serious for the supply of medicines and medical products should the UK leave the EU with no deal.
