Produktresume.dk

At produktresume.dk, you can download the summaries of product characteristics of medicines authorised for sale in Denmark. They are in Danish and updated on a weekly basis to implement any authorised changes, etc.

Which medicines are described?

Not all authorised medicines have been placed on the market in Denmark, because some companies choose not to market their products even though they are authorised to do so.

You can find information about medicines marketed in Denmark under Medicine Prices, which also lists consumer prices for all packages. This information is updated every fortnight.
