"Beginning 13 June 2015, new plain language labeling regulations will take effect in Canada for prescription drugs, including biologics and radiopharmaceuticals. While the regulations do cover non-prescription drugs, the requirements will not take effect for them until 13 June 2017. Existing products will not be affected by the new regulations, as they do not apply retroactively, though the government expects existing products will eventually conform to the new regulations as labels and packages are updated. Additionally, the regulations do not affect other healthcare products such as medical devices, veterinary medicines or natural health products, which will retain current labeling requirements...." by Michael Mezher Regulatory Affairs Professional Society
