Medicines and a no-deal Brexit

We talk to the BBC

The UK imports 37 million packs of medicine each month from the EU - and exports even more. 

RPS President Ash Soni was interviewed today about access to medicines in case of a no-deal Brexit on the BBC News Channel.

Ash stressed that patients should be confident that the supply of medicines will continue and warned against stockpiling medicines. He also commented “Politicians must remember that these drugs save people’s lives……they must recognise and remember that as part of the negotiation”.  The piece also covered access to new medicines in case of a no-deal scenario.
