Drug safety has become an extremely important topic following the experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Currently, in the face of the ongoing war in Ukraine, ensuring the stability of drug supplies is as crucial as military security, due to the fact that most of API is imported from the East - it is not produced in Europe - what can be done to secure patients with lifesaving drugs? This was the subject of discussion during the panel at last week's II Polish-German Economic Forum.   Our Manufacturing Scientific and Technology Director, Dariusz Gurtowski, participated in the panel alongside Sebastian Szymanek, CEO of Polpharma, Anna Krzyżanowska, Head of Governmental Affairs and Market Access at Merck, and Przemek Grzywa, Cofounder of Revolve Healthcare. They all tackled the question: Does Poland have the potential to become a pharmaceutical logistics and production hub? From our perspective – absolutely! As one of the largest biotechnology companies in Europe - producer of API and Drug Products, we are already producing in Poland Recombinant Human Insulin and have the capability to produce recombinant protein but also to adopt new technologies through technology transfer, in accordance with cGMP requirements, produce #BioTech API and do the formulation, as a sterile liquid forms dosed into vials and cartridges. Drug safety procedures ensure the availability of drugs and key Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API). This implementation of production technology in Poland, where factories, production capacity and experience in the production of life-saving drugs are already available, will ensure drug safety - patient safety. #biotechnology #drugsafety #logistics
