Biomedicines are medicines that are made from, or contain, biological active substances, unlike conventional medicines, which contain chemical active substances.

Pharmaceutical manufacturers are allowed to copy branded medicines once all patent and data protection periods have expired. Copies of branded conventional medicines are known as generics and copies of biomedicines are known as biosimilar medicines. Because of the biological nature of biomedicines and biosimilar medicines, there may be subtle differences between the branded reference product and each copy product. This means that there are additional factors to be considered when copies of biomedicines are made and when they are assessed by the regulator for a marketing authorisation.

Note: According to the English-Spanish Spanish-English Medical Dictionary by Glenn T. Rogers, M.D., the word " "MEDICAMENTO" means: medication, medicine and/or drug, thus the compound word "biomedicamento" can be translated as "biomedication", and/or 'biomedicine '

Biodrugs and Biopharmaceuticals


Explanation:
I work in the Pharmaceutical Industry and we use "drugs" for medicamentos and "biodrugs" for biomedicamento.
Regarding the term "biofármaco", "biopharmacuticals" would be the appropriate equivalent.

Example sentence(s):
  • Biologic-based drugs differ from conventional drugs in that they are derived from mammal proteins, not chemicals. St. Louis companies such as Sigma-Aldrich, Wyeth BioPharma and Pfizer (see sidebar p.28) are leaders in the bio-drug business...
  • Manipulating the Reversible Aggregation of Protein Hormones in Secretory Granules: Potential Impact on Biopharmaceutical Development.
