In health establishments and health cooperation groups with an in-house pharmacy, the pharmacist managing this pharmacy is the correspondent of the regional pharmacovigilance centre for blood-derived medicinal products. When an establishment has several internal-use pharmacies, the pharmacist managing each of these pharmacies is the correspondent of the regional centre for the blood-derived medicinal products it supplies.
In health establishments and health cooperation groups authorised under article L. 6133-7 to carry out the tasks of these establishments which do not have an in-house pharmacy, the stock of medicinal products referred to in article R. 5126-108 may only contain blood-derived medicinal products if the establishment has designated a correspondent of the regional pharmacovigilance centre for blood-derived medicinal products. This correspondent may be either the pharmacist mentioned in I of article L. 5126-10 , or a pharmacist recruited for this purpose and meeting the conditions set by order of the Minister for Health. In health cooperation groups, this correspondent may be a practitioner performing the same functions within one of the health establishments that are members of the group. His/her name is communicated to the regional pharmacovigilance centre.
