Mawdsleys pioneered the supply of imported unlicensed medicines for UK hospitals in the early 2000s and is now the UK’s largest supplier. The world of pharmaceutical supply is constantly evolving and over the last 200 years, we’ve continued to lead the way.
Like everything we do, importing unlicensed medicines is underpinned by our key principles of quality, value and trust. We have MHRA-approved facilities that operate under GMP and a highly skilled team that offers exceptional service and ensures seamless patient treatment.
We’re included on all NHS tenders for imported unlicensed medicines in the UK, which makes us a preferred supplier of specialist imports — one that can give hospitals access to over 2,000 imported medicines, and stocks of over 500 imported medicines.
When a licensed medicine is in short supply, or no clinically viable UK licensed product exists for patients with rare diseases, there can be pressure on healthcare professionals to find a different solution. Imported medicines from outside the UK that are licensed in their country of origin can be that solution, but sourcing and importing them takes experience and expertise.
We work with a network of pharmaceutical manufacturers and suppliers around the world, and in conjunction with UK regulatory authorities, to source imported unlicensed medicines and clinically viable alternatives to licensed medicines that are in short supply — giving you access to cost-effective, sustainable solutions that can get the medicines to your patients when they need them.
