Medicines authorised between 2006 and 2017 without additional risk minimisation measures (aRMMs) have a low probability that aRMMs will be introduced within 5 and 10 years after authorisation, and medicines authorised with aRMMs during that period have a low probability that aRMMs will be discontinued.
Post-authorisation introduction of aRMMs is most often triggered by new safety information arising from spontaneous reports or clinical trials.
The role of effectiveness evaluation of aRMMs in the life cycle management of medicines is currently unclear.
