ABSTRACT
Variations are the amendments made to an approved product’s dossier after its
original registration. They are the fundamental aspect of pharmaceutical product life cycle
management. Variations notifications are informed to the Agency through Variation filing.
According to the level of risk variations are categorized as Type IA/IAIN (Minor Change –
“Do and Tell procedure”); Type IB (Moderate Change - “Tell, wait and Do procedure”); and
Type II and Line extensions (Major Change – “Tell, approval and Do procedure”). This
article describes the variations, types of variations, regulations, and submission process of
variations in Europe.
