The European Medicines Agency (EMA), in February 2012, recommended that the suspension of the marketing authorisations for aprotinin-containing medicines in the European Union be lifted. This follows a full review of the benefits and risks of all antifibrinolytic medicines, which found that the results of the BART study on which the suspension was based are unreliable.
