Assessment reports

There are assessment reports with environmental information for Zoledronic acid Teva, Zoledronic acid Actavis, Zoledronic Acid Hospira, Zoledronic Acid Accord and Zoledronic acid medac with similar information. The following information is from Zoledronic Acid Accord, 21 November 2013 EMA/806574/2013. "No Environmental Risk Assessment was submitted. This was justified by the applicant as the introduction of Zoledronic Acid Accord manufactured by Accord Healthcare Limited is considered unlikely to result in any significant increase in the combined sales volumes for all zoledronic acid containing products and the exposure of the environment to the active substance. Thus, the ERA is expected to be similar and not increased." However, no environmental information about zoledronic acid has been found on the EMA website (2023-03-01).
