Infarmed prohibited the export of 51 medicines

Diário de Viseu14 September 2026 at 19:15

The National Authority of Medicines (Infarmed) prohibited the export of 51 medicines during this month. This decision was communicated through an information circular published today.

Among the medicines covered by this prohibition are drugs intended for the treatment of various types of cancer, medicines for migraine attacks and also antidepressants.

The measure aims to guarantee the availability of these medicines in the Portuguese national market, preventing them from being exported to other countries when there are domestic supply needs.

Why this matters

This prohibition directly affects Portuguese patients who depend on these medicines, by guaranteeing their availability in the national market. The measure aims to prevent stock shortage situations that have affected several European countries, following a trend of restricting exports to protect internal supply.
