For many years Bell Dewar has represented major companies in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. We have acted for pharmaceutical manufacturers, distributors and retailers and medical schemes as well as chemical and agri-chemical manufacturers.

The pharmaceutical group advises on the general legislative framework as well as specific issues affecting their businesses such as pricing, distribution, registration and advertising of medicines and licensing of pharmacies and doctors. The team also has experience in dealings with the Medicines Control Council.

We have in-depth knowledge of the Medicines and Related Substances Control Act, the Pharmacy Act, the Health Professions Act and the Medical Schemes Act and the recent amendments and regulations relating to them.
