4 July 2014 - Deborah Wilkes

Pfizer Consumer Healthcare wants to have Nexium Control (esomeprazole) classified as a general-sale list (GSL) medicine in the UK, following its authorisation as a non-prescription medicine through the European Union's centralised procedure. The application includes a detailed benefit-risk analysis based on the Brass et al model supported by the World Self-Medication Industry (WSMI).
