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.
327 - Hi There, Our client has just received NOC to a new product. They do not have a large Sales Force and therefore is not looking to develop comprehensive materials. They would like to take their approved Product Monograph and highlight key messages within it - not changing any copy/content - but just simple draw attention to specific sections, such as patient groups, efficacy and adverse events. We would submit the highlighted PM through PAAB for approval - but before we go into development I just wanted to confirm this would be something PAAB would allow.

Please refer to the Guidance document about promotional monographs on our website:
http://www.paab.ca/resources/pdfs/code-revision/Guidance_on_Promotional_Monographs.pdf
PAAB would not accept placing highlighting over some sections of the monograph content. Modifications should be presented in such a way as to be clearly distinguished from the PM itself. Per the aforementioned document, you could employ callouts in the margin of the document to meet your desired objective.
