Risk Management Plan

Meaning

A Risk Management Plan (RMP) is a detailed, structured document required by regulatory bodies that outlines the methods for identifying, characterizing, preventing, and minimizing the risks associated with a pharmaceutical product throughout its entire lifecycle. This proactive plan goes beyond pre-market clinical trials, extending into the post-marketing surveillance phase to ensure ongoing patient safety. In the context of hormonal therapies, the RMP addresses known and potential adverse effects related to chronic use and specific patient populations.
