The National Administration of Medicines, Food and Medical Technology (Anmat) has officially canceled the licenses of over 60 pharmacies, laboratories, and companies involved in the distribution of medications whose certifications were expired. This action was formalized through Disposition 694/2026, announced in the Official Bulletin, which mandates the deletion of corresponding documentation. The decision reflects Anmat's ongoing commitment to ensuring the compliance of medical establishments with the necessary regulations pertaining to the safe distribution of medicinal products.

The revocation of these licenses stems from a thorough review by Anmat's Technical Information Management Directorate, which uncovered lapses in the required renewal of Good Practices certificates essential for the operation of these establishments. The agency's efforts are aimed at preserving public health and safety by ensuring that all entities involved in the medication supply chain adhere strictly to established regulatory standards. Such stringent measures are critical in a landscape where counterfeit and substandard medications pose significant risks to populations.

This decision not only illustrates the regulatory body's proactive stance in enforcing compliance but also serves as a warning to other establishments regarding the importance of maintaining current certifications. As Argentina continues to navigate challenges in healthcare, such regulatory actions from Anmat are vital to bolster consumer confidence in the safety and efficacy of medications available in the market.
