Vision
Contributing to a sustainable future by proactively managing the environmental impact of medicines.
Mission
- Develop tools to identify and predict potential environmental impacts associated with the use of human medicines.
- Explore the feasibility of greener drug design and development with associated guiding principles.
- Develop a framework to prioritise the environmental assessment of existing medicines based on risk.
- Generate environmental data for up to 25 existing medicines based on their potential environmental risk to validate the prioritisation framework.
- Launch an evidence-based transparent, public and easily accessible database collating physico-chemical and environmental properties (ecotoxicity, e-fate) as well as relevant metadata for human medicines.
- Create a novel information and assessment guiding system to support regulators, water managers and other stakeholders in identifying and managing any potential environmental risks associated with the patient use of medicines.
- Provide stakeholder guidance on how to use the PREMIER data, tools and assessment system in practice.
