Extensive research by the global scientific fraternity has led to the production of many radiopharmaceuticals of immense clinical importance. However, this increasing availability has not been matched by adequate regulatory action to back up the legal foundation for their commercial use. It is imperative for a radiopharmaceutical to have a seal of regulatory authority approval to qualify for human use. The present article highlights various regulatory requirements for approval of radio-pharmaceuticals in USA, Europe, and particularly India, which does not have guidelines for their approval, and intensifies the concern for a harmonized regulatory platform of global acceptance.Keywords
Approval, Commercial Use, Guidelines, Radiopharmaceuticals, Regulatory Authority.Full Text

The inclusion of monographs of several radiopharmaceuticals in the Indian Pharmacopoeia has drawn the attention of drug control authorities in the country and other stakeholders. Therefore, in a move towards better regulation of radiopharmaceuticals, the Office of the Drug Controller General of India has issued some important notices concerning their import. However, these notices have resulted in several misgivings among the nuclear medicine community as appointment of patients for nuclear medicine scans had to be cancelled/rescheduled and clinical decisions delayed. An analysis of the sequence of events is presented in this study, highlighting the effects of decisions taken regarding import of radiopharmaceuticals, and suggestions to implement regulations with minimal repercussions.Full Text
