On February 7, 2018, Health Canada published an update to the
guidance document Classification of Products at the (Medical)
Device-Drug Interface. According to Health Canada's
notice, the update is "intended to reflect the changes to the
definition of (medical) device made to the Food and Drugs Act (the
Act) following the enactment of the Protecting Canadians from
Unsafe Drugs Act (Vanessa's Law) on November 6, 2014, and to
bring greater clarity to the description of how Health Canada
classifies health products at the device-drug interface."
The preceding is intended as a timely update on Canadian
intellectual property and technology law. The content is
informational only and does not constitute legal or professional
