Omar Alexis Camargo Muñoz

Omar Alexis Camargo Muñoz’s practice centers on health and pharmaceutical regulation and includes labor matters. With education in law and pharmacy, he reviews the technical and legal documents health authorities require.

With the National Directorate of Pharmacy and Drugs, he handles applications to register and renew medicines and later changes to their registrations, such as label and monograph updates. These changes are frequent because laboratories must adjust to every change in the regulations. He also manages regulatory files for medical devices, which he prepares and submits to the Ministry of Health, and requests for technical criteria before the Ministry and the Social Security Fund. In addition, he can handle health registrations for food products.

His work begins with analyzing the applicable requirements and reviewing documents before filing. He then follows each file through with the health authority and writes reports to keep track of deadlines. When the authority issues comments, he prepares the corrections and keeps the client informed of progress, requests, and risks.

In labor matters, his experience was developed within a company and covers internal rules, codes of ethics, disciplinary procedures, terminations, collective bargaining, and formal union demands. There he advised management and internal departments and coordinated labor matters with outside counsel. He holds degrees in Law and Political Science and in Pharmacy from the University of Panama, where he also completed a postgraduate program in Higher Education Teaching, and he has a master’s degree in Corporate Business Law from Universidad del Istmo.
