Earlier the Ministry of Health (MoH), Saudi Arabia, was the regulatory body that was responsible for the registration, regulation, and approval of all medicinal and health products and monitoring their safety, efficacy, and quality. In 2003, the Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) was created as an independent institution that directly reports to the Council of Ministers. The SFDA is renowned for having the most stringent regulations and requirements for medicinal product market authorization in the Middle Eastern region.. Generic products will undergo validation, assessment, pricing, testing, and inspection processes and must present product licensing and GMP certification before they can be granted market authorization. The strict regulations are put in place to ultimately ensure patient safety. Though the SFDA implements a strong regulatory service framework, manufactures face obstacles when obtaining market authorization due to ever-changing and stringent regulations.
