Most national governments have created agencies with the
responsibility for deciding which medicinal drugs should be
imported or manufactured and made available through their health
systems. Many of these agencies were set up some twenty years ago
in the wake of the thalidomide disaster. Since that time they have
developed in quite different ways in response to national, cultural
and economic influences. Their direct cost is very small in
comparison to overall health budgets but their indirect effects,
both in terms of health and the economy, can be substantial. In
1980 the World Health Organization (WHO) Regional Office for Europe
set up a series of studies of drug evaluation in the European
region aimed at determining the effects of the work of regulatory
agencies on the availability of drugs, on the pharmaceutical
industry, and on the health of individuals in the countries
concerned. This book sets that work in a historical context and
describes the sources of the data used by the project team and the
methods used by WHO and others in assessing the work of these
agencies and its repercussions for the community. Finally, it
presents an analysis of current knowledge and the plans and
prospects for future research. The first draft of this book was
presented to a meeting of experts in the field of drug regulation
at Oslo in March 1984, and the present text embodies the views and
conclusions of that meeting.
