A short summary of the output from an ETERNAL Industry engagement workshop conducted as part of the Making Pharmaceuticals UK Conference programme held at the Coventry Building Society Arena, Coventry, United Kingdom, on 23rd and 24th April 2024 is now available.

A key aspect of evaluating the environmental impact and sustainability of pharmaceuticals is assessing the risk that they may pose to ecosystems. A new public report from the ETERNAL project provides an overview of the current EMA regulation covering the environmental risk assessment of pharmaceuticals, followed by a comparison against the new proposed Regulation and Directive published earlier in 2023. The report concludes with a series of recommendations for integrating the latest scientific knowledge into pharmaceutical risk assessment to help fill gaps in the current and proposed legislation.
