This story is from 18 September 2026.

Under a regulation by the Turkish Medicines and Medical Devices Agency, the gradual shift to electronic instructions for use will become mandatory from January 1, 2027; patients will access information by scanning the QR code on the box with their phone, and printed instructions may still be provided to those who request them.

In the transition that began with TİTCK's regulation dated 6 December 2024, the absence of a printed prospectus in the box will not be considered a packaging deficiency. Patients will access the information by scanning the QR code with their phone or tablet camera. Printed instructions may continue to be provided for those who request them.
