Abstract
Registration of medicines is an essential function of the national medicine regulatory system
of any country. Since the start of the medicine registration system in Tanzania in early 2000s,
no systematic review has been carried out to document the status of the system and its impact
on availability and access to quality assured medicines to the people of Tanzania.
Objectives
The study was aimed at reviewing the medicine registration system in Tanzania as
implemented by the Tanzania Food and Drugs Authority in order to come up with status of
the medicine registration system implemented in Tanzania, and evaluate how the system
contributes to the availability and access of essential medicines, particularly those needed to
support the essential medicines lists and standard treatment guidelines.
