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.

    Hello,

    Similar to my most recent post, when looking at the marketing of a controlled substance to HCPs, where Health Canada guidance is that all claims must align to/be supported by the TMA, does that apply to exclusivity and experience claims that are non-clinical in nature?

    E.g., 'X patient years of experience', 'first and only product in class X'.

    Thank you,
    Danika

      To add another example, what about non-clinical claims about dosing like 'once-monthly'?
