Pharmaceutical texts leave no room for imprecision: an ambiguous sentence in a package leaflet, a mistranslated term in an SmPC or inconsistent terminology in a regulatory dossier can mean queries from the authorities, delays in approval or risks for patients. UniTranslate supports pharmaceutical companies, biotech firms and CROs with specialist translations that are linguistically, scientifically and regulatorily sound. Our clients include companies from the pharmaceutical industry as well as other firms from the Swiss Market Index and the Global Fortune 500.
What we translate for pharmaceutical companies
Among other documents, we translate SmPCs and package leaflets (PIL), labelling and packaging, regulatory and registration documents, clinical trial protocols, case report forms (CRF) and study reports, patient information and informed consent forms (ICF), GMP documentation, SOPs and training materials, pharmacovigilance reports and safety updates as well as scientific publications, posters and congress contributions. We also adapt marketing materials for OTC products so that they remain scientifically accurate and convincing in the target market.
Specialist translators with a life-science background
Pharmaceutical translations are handled exclusively by translators with a scientific or medical education who work into their native language. On request, every translation is revised by a second specialist (four-eyes principle). Client-specific glossaries and translation memories ensure that your terminology stays consistent across all documents and projects – even for urgent jobs involving several translators.
For Switzerland and every target market
Whether German, French and Italian for Switzerland or more than 100 further languages for international approvals and studies: we provide the linguistic basis for your communication with authorities, professionals and patients. Certified translations – for authorities or court proceedings, for example – are issued with stamp and signature, on request also notarised or with an apostille.
Confidentiality and security
Study documents and regulatory dossiers are highly sensitive. Our staff and specialist translators are contractually bound to secrecy; on request we sign project-specific non-disclosure agreements. Your files are transferred encrypted and, on request, deleted completely once the assignment is finished.
