Regulatory Services in Malaysia

The Ministry of Health (MoH) of Malaysia is responsible for governing and protection of public health and the healthcare system. Many agencies of the MoH work together to ensure close regulation of medicinal products and patient safety. The National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency (NPRA) is responsible for ensuring the quality aspects of the products are in line with the regulations in place

The Drug Control Authority (DCA) monitors and evaluates the safety, quality, and efficacy of regulated products including registration and licensing. The Malaysian Adverse Drug Reaction Advisory Committee (MADRAC) of the DCA is responsible for drug safety and pharmacovigilance services for the regulated products, where all reported Adverse Drug Reactions after being assessed are communicated to the WHO Global ICSR database. The synergistic collaboration of these agencies ensures products that are safe, efficacious, and of high quality, are made available to the public in a timely manner. The requirements for biologics, combination drugs and medical devices are different to those of drugs.
