HOW TO IDENTIFY MEDICINES THAT ARE REGISTERED WITH MOH?

All medicinal products in Malaysia, including imported medicines, must be
registered with the Ministry of Health Malaysia (MOH)  before they can be sold
or marketed to consumers. Registered products are guaranteed in terms of Safety,
Quality and Efficacy. Registered medicines must carry both registration numbers
(ie  MAL20125467T) and  Meditag Hologram labels on its label or packaging. A
valid registration number begins with “MAL”, followed by 8-digit numbers and
ends with an alphabet to indicate their registration category. The categories of
registered product are as follows:

A – Controlled medicines
X – Over the counter medicines (OTC)
T – Natural Products/ Traditional Medicines
N – Health Supplements
H - Veterinary Products

In addition, there may be administrative codes used by the National
Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency after the product category. The administrative
code is:

C  – Contract Manufactured (the product is manufactured by a GMP certified
contract manufacturer)
E – For Export Only (FEO) (the product is to be sold for export only and not for
sale in the local market)
R –  Packed and/or repacked (the product is packed and/or repacked by an
approved GMP certified packer and/or repacker)
S – Second source (the product is from a second source/ approved second
manufacturer)
Y –  Orphan products
Z – Products gazetted as zero-rated under the Goods and Services Tax Act 2014,
Goods and Services Tax (Zero-Rated Supplies) Order 2014.

Users can check the registration status of a product through the
https://www.npra.gov.my / OR by contacting the National Pharmaceutical
Regulatory Agency at 03-78835400.

In that website you can click on the 'Product Search' icon. Search for
registered products can be done using:

•    Product Name
•    Registration Number
•    Registration Holder Name
•    Active Ingridient
•    Manufacturer / Importer Name

If the product is a registered product, the registration status will be
displayed. After checking the registration number, you are advised to check the
validity of the hologram label through a pharmacist at nearby hospital, clinic
or pharmacy.

In addition, people can also download the NPRA Product Status application from
the Google Play Store to check the status of their product registration.
