This includes advice on safe and appropriate use. It is therefore necessary to allow manufacturers to provide information and recommendations, in addition to label information, directly to healthcare professionals. It is also the case that healthcare professionals will advise manufacturers on the needs of their patients in order to formulate products and to collect the appropriate scientific data in order to meet the objectives of this regulation.
