1. Remedies

Due to the Europe-wide re-registration process (1979-2002) and the expansion of the remedy pool from other continents, many traditionally used medicines were lost or changed with ever new regulations as a result of the new legislation. Genuine innovations are thus very expensive and time-consuming when it comes to re-registration.
