The importation of a proprietary medicinal product constitutes a parallel import with a view to placing it on the market in France:
1° Which comes from another Member State of the European Community or party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area, in which it has obtained a marketing authorisation;
2° Whose quantitative and qualitative composition in terms of active substances and excipients, pharmaceutical form and therapeutic effects are identical to those of a proprietary medicinal product which has obtained a marketing authorisation issued by the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé. However, the proprietary medicinal product may contain excipients different from those of the proprietary medicinal product which has obtained a marketing authorisation issued by the Agence nationale de sécurité du médicament et des produits de santé, or the same excipients in a quantity different from that contained in that proprietary medicinal product, provided that this difference has no therapeutic impact and does not entail a risk to public health.
