Abstract
Water Framework Directive addresses and regulates
the chemical status in water by focusing on Priority
Substances, so there is a growing need to consider the
emerging pollutants.
In this context, Pharmaceuticals have emerged as a
major group of environmental contaminants over the
past decade but relatively little is known about their
occurrence, fate and fate.
International Seminar
Pharmaceuticals in the
Environment:
Overview and future
Albeit in trace amounts they are of great concern given
their continuous introduction into the environment. Recently, the new pharmacovigilance legislation (Directive
2010/84/EU and Regulation EC No 1235/2010), have
recognized their impact on ecosystems and human
health.
Therefore, the environmental risk assessment (ERA) of
medicinal products has to be evaluated and appropriate
legislation has already been issued in the European
Union (EU).
Organizations at the international level are increasingly
and intensively engaged in this debate. This seminar
should contribute to the discussion and networking
amongst academia, regulators, industry and other
stakeholders to create possible integrated solutions.
