Submit product information texts
Consumers must be able to find product information texts, i.e. the package leaflets and specialist information for medicines, online. The Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices (BfArM) regularly makes the product information texts available online for this purpose.
As a pharmaceutical company, you must submit your final product information texts to the BfArM once the procedure has been completed. This also applies to regulatory changes to the texts.
You can only submit the texts online via the specialist application PIT. In addition to the mandatory German versions, you can also upload English versions.
