Pharmaceutical Company Quickly Transitions 28 SKUs To Comply With New Labeling Requirements
By Vlad Spehar, Director of Business Development, Jones Healthcare Group
A large multi-national pharmaceutical company contacted Jones Healthcare Group for assistance in complying with new Health Canada regulatory requirements for labeling over-the-counter (OTC) products.
In January 2017, Health Canada adopted amendments to existing Food and Drug Regulations (Labelling, Packaging and Brand Names of Drugs for Human Use) for non-prescription, OTC drug products. The amendments and new guidance are commonly known as Plain Language Labelling (PLL) regulations. All OTC products at retail must be in full compliance by June 30, 2021.1 The pharmaceutical company contacted Jones well in advance of the effective date due to the volume and complexity of the program and to avoid placing their products at risk of non-compliance.
