Overview

The Irish Pharmaceutical Healthcare Association (IPHA) represents the international research based pharmaceutical industry in Ireland. Our members include both manufacturers of prescription medicines and non-prescription or consumer health care medicines.

The mission of IPHA is to create a favourable economic, regulatory and political environment, which will enable the research-based pharmaceutical industry in Ireland to meet the growing healthcare needs and expectations of patients.

It aims also to develop an appreciation of the value of medicines, in particular innovative medicines, to healthcare and society as a whole thereby ensuring patients' continued, timely access to the full range of available medicines, regardless of their ability to pay.
