Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.
370 - We have a question related to the placement of formulary messaging on sample boxes. Is it acceptable to place a formulary sticker on a sample box? If so what kind of approvals would be required to permit this action?

Affixing something onto a product's outer box is a labelling concern. PAAB does not review and approve labelling. Health Canada regulates labelling. I'd consult the manufacturer's internal regulatory department for guidance on this matter. The answer would be significantly different if it related to affixing a sticker to a previously PAAB approved sample holder (i.e. an APS). Let me know if this is what you meant.
