Frequently asked questions

I produce radiopharmaceuticals for diagnostic imaging — should I use the ATECO code for radiopharmaceuticals or generic medicines?
Here, and this is a very narrow code: it covers only the manufacture of radioactive diagnostic substances intended for in-vivo administration. All other medicinal products — including non-radioactive medico-diagnostic preparations such as pregnancy tests — fall under 21.20.09.
I make non-radioactive diagnostic kits and reagents — do I fall here or elsewhere?
No, this code is reserved for radioactive in-vivo substances. If you produce non-radioactive medico-diagnostic preparations, go to 21.20.09; if they are compound chemical reagents for diagnostics and laboratory use, the reference is miscellaneous chemicals 20.59.99.
I synthesise the base radioisotope that someone else then turns into a radiopharmaceutical — should I use the ATECO code for basic pharmaceutical products or radiopharmaceuticals?
It depends on where you stop in the supply chain. If you produce the crude radioactive substance as a raw material, the reference is the manufacture of basic pharmaceutical products 21.10.00. When you instead formulate the radioactive diagnostic substance ready for in-vivo administration, you fall under this code.
