Does any Pakistani authority understands international rules and regulations governing for drug development and drug registration for human subjects?

The International Conference on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) is unique in bringing together the regulatory authorities and pharmaceutical industry of Europe, Japan and the US to discuss scientific and technical aspects of drug registration. Since its inception in 1990, ICH has evolved, through its ICH Global Cooperation Group, to respond to the increasingly global face of drug development, so that the benefits of international harmonisation for better global health can be realised worldwide. ICH's mission is to achieve greater harmonisation to ensure that safe, effective, and high quality medicines are developed and registered in the most resource-efficient manner.

Pakistani authorities should seek help from international organizations to develop laws to govern their medicine industry. Help from Pakistani doctors working in similar settings abroad can be sought. Good outcome is possible with positive commitment and strong will.
