How Hospital Exemption (EU) works in Lebanon
Lebanon's MoPH has a functional (if under-resourced) named-patient pathway for unregistered drugs.
Patients in Lebanon seeking access under Hospital Exemption (EU) typically follow this flow: a licensed physician in Lebanon issues the prescription and clinical justification, the regulator reviews and authorises, and an authorised operator coordinates import.
Documents required in Lebanon
- Physician prescription and clinical-justification letter.
- Patient identification and consent.
- Country-specific NPP/personal-import form.
- Hospital or clinic attestation where required.
Typical timeline
End-to-end 2-6 weeks in most tier 3 jurisdictions. Cellular and gene therapies may require additional ethics-committee review.
