Finance Minister AMA Muhith on Thursday said the export of pharmaceutical products to the United States (US) market is a great achievement of the country as it is difficult to receive approval from the US Food and Drug Administration(FDA).
“One of the most difficult regulatory body in that (US) country is Food and Drug Administration,” he said while addressing as the chief guest at a function on celebrating the first ever shipment of prescription medicine to USA at a hotel in the city.
Beximco Pharmaceuticals Limited (BPL) organised the function marking the company’s first ever pharmaceutical product export to US market.
Congratulating the Beximco Pharmaceuticals for the achievement, the minister said this is the achievement of the pharmaceutical sector of the country.
Health and Family Welfare Minister Mohammed Nasim, US Ambassador in Dhaka Marcia Bernicat, Beximco Group Vice Chairman Salman F Rahman and Beximco Pharma Managing Director Nazmul Hassan MP, among others, were present.
Receiving approval from the US Food and Drug Administration is long and rigorous process, said Marcia Bernicat, adding that “It is the FDA’s job to uphold the highest standards and to protect American consumers.”
