PRACTICE AREA

Food, Drugs and Medical Devices

The Food, Drugs and Medical Devices practice at PRK helps leading pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, food, cosmetics and tobacco firms navigate the complex national and EU regulatory landscape. We advise clients on developing, manufacturing, marketing, promoting and distributing their products.

We also offer support in the area of pricing and reimbursement of drugs, biologics, medical devices and other regulated products. Besides our deep knowledge of the relevant legislation, we maintain a commercial focus and an understanding of our clients' priorities in their day-to-day business operations. We are able to do this in part thanks to the fact that many of our legal experts have themselves spent time working in the industry.
