Brexit: NHS no-deal fears prompt call for drugs export ban Pharmaceutical industry leaders want a temporary ban on drugs exports to prevent the NHS being hit by shortages in the event of a no-deal Brexit.
The call came from the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry.
It told the BBC a drop in the value of the pound would create an incentive for wholesalers to sell medicines overseas instead of to the NHS.
The Department of Health says it is working closely with the industry to ensure continuity of supply. BBC News
