Product is "in stock" claim

[support]

Hi PAAB!

Would a message like "X product is now back in stock!" be subjected to PAAB review?

If it is not subjected to PAAB review, what are the conditions that it has to meet?

Thanks in advance!

Hey @support

A simple availability message such as “Product X is now back in stock” would be considered exempt. To remain exempt it should be limited to an informational message (not linked to therapeutic or promotional messages) about stock. (s1.5D)

Hi Jennifer,

Thank you for your response!

If we were to include a message about a specific dose of the product that is now back in stock, would this piece still be exempt?
Additionally, would the inclusion of the indication statement or product photo make this no longer exempt?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi @support

A strictly informational statement about stock such as “Product X 5mg dose now back in stock” could be considered exempt.

The inclusion of the indication statement renders it no longer exempt.
The inclusion of a product photo MAY render it no longer exempt. This piece should likely be submitted for an exempt opinion to assess if the product photo can be used while meeting exempt criteria.
