Session Chair(s)
Horst Kastrup
Senior Regulatory Advisor
Horst Kastrup, Germany
Responsible self-care practices are an important contribution to public health, even more in view of limited resources in public health systems. Self care practice has long, but differing traditions in the European nations. These differences and a tendency to use standards for prescription drugs in regulations for self-care products have been limiting the potential of self-care medicine. The session will provide updates on the progress made to tackle these issues and to provide views for the future.
