Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament et des Produits de Santé

Agence Nationale de Sécurité du Médicament et des Produits de Santé (ANSM)[1] superseded the tasks and duties of Agence Française de Sécurité Sanitaire des Produits de Santé (AFSSAPS) on 1 May 2012.[2] It is responsible for assessing the benefits and risks associated with the use of health products throughout their life-cycle. ANSM assesses the safety, efficacy and quality of these products and must balance patient safety with access to novel therapies.
