Returning Products
In order to minimise infection risk, the Medicines & Healthcare products
Regulatory Agency (MHRA) suggests that items being returned to a
manufacturer should be decontaminated appropriately before return. (See
MHRA DB 2003 (OX)). A certificate of decontamination may therefore
be required before goods can be returned. Please contact the company or
your supplier for further details.
