Discontinuation
It is common occurrence that a particular drugs licence within the UK expires, or for economic reasons the licence holder ceases to continue the marketing of its product.
This is called 'discontinuation'.
When this happens, more often than not, it leaves the prescriber and patient without a suitable alternative in their national market.
The manufacturer will want to minimise any disruption in supply and limit any patient inconvenience by offering an alternative.
Sourcing alternative drugs
Working closely with these manufacturers, Welbeck Medical can solve these supply problems by managing and sourcing alternative (quite often identical) medications from abroad.
Welbeck Medical will manage the whole process from sourcing the drugs to supplying them directly to healthcare professionals where patients are being treated or prescriptions dispensed.
