Ecuador is a growing Latin American market with increasing healthcare needs and demand for pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and health products.
The National Agency for Health Regulation, Control and Surveillance (ARCSA – Agencia Nacional de Regulación, Control y Vigilancia Sanitaria) is the national regulatory authority responsible for the registration, importation, distribution, quality control, pharmacovigilance, and post-market surveillance of medicines, medical devices, cosmetics, and biologics in Ecuador. ARCSA requires product registration, import permits, GMP compliance, quality certificates (CPP, GMP), Spanish labelling, and local sanitary registration holder representation. MedWisdom LifeScience provides expert regulatory affairs support to help global manufacturers navigate ARCSA requirements, prepare compliant dossiers, secure timely approvals, and achieve efficient market entry and sustained compliance in this emerging Latin American market.
