The rules first
What pharmaceutical video can and can’t say in the UAE.
Prescription-only medicines can’t be advertised to the public in the UAE. The exception is promotion to healthcare practitioners in scientific settings, which also needs approval. Advertising for authorised products generally needs approval of its content and placement, and electronic or social media advertising needs a UAE Media Council licence.
That shapes the whole production. A video for doctors and a video for patients are planned as separate pieces from the start, with your medical and regulatory reviewers involved before filming, not after.
- i.HCP and public versions planned separately
- ii.No prescription-medicine promotion to the public
- iii.Medical and regulatory review built in
- iv.Approval status confirmed at the brief
