New and Updated Websites for Non-Prescription Drugs

 

The Natural and Non-prescription Health Products Directorate (NNHPD) has launched a dedicated landing page for Non-prescription Drugs (NPDs) to provide clearer guidance for industry stakeholders.

 

Key Highlights:

 

  • New NPD Landing Page was created to distinguish NPD requirements from prescription drug content. It covers the full product lifecycle, from authorization to post-market activities.
  • The Labelling Standards and Category IV Monograph pages have been updated with new links and information.
  • The NNHPD plans to update the landing page regularly as new content becomes available.
  • For inquiries regarding the new web content, stakeholders can email mailto:nnhpd-dpsnso@hc-sc.gc.ca.
