Informationen
During the on-site inspection of the business establishment, the hygienic condition of operating and business premises, facilities and their surroundings, means of transportation and storage facilities will be checked in particular.
Care is taken to ensure that the range of medicinal products only contains preparations that are over-the-counter in accordance with the Medicinal Products Act or the Ordinance on Pharmacy-only and Over-the-counter Medicinal Products.
The sale of over-the-counter medicines requires the expertise of the entrepreneur or a person appointed by him to manage the company or to sell them. Proof of expertise must be provided by passing an examination at the competent Chamber of Industry and Commerce. Other specific examinations and certificates (e.g. pharmaceutical commercial clerk, pharmaceutical technical assistant) are also recognized as proof of expertise. It is determined whether a competent person is available.
Furthermore, the medicines are checked for proper storage and quality defects (detectable sensory defects, labeling defects, expiry date).
When dispensing medicinal products in the itinerant trade, checks are carried out to ensure that only finished medicinal products approved for the itinerant trade are dispensed. In addition, it is checked whether the medicinal products are stored properly and protected from light, temperature, weather conditions and contamination during transportation and placing on the market.
