Obtaining a Notification Number (NN)
The Veterinary Health Product Notification Program of Health Canada has set a flexible and risk-appropriate regulatory framework for VHPs that have a history of safe use. According to the program, to obtain a Notification Number,
- A VHP application needs to be submitted to Health Canada.
- All ingredients (active, or inactive) must be present in the Permitted Substances List (PSL).
- If some ingredients are not included in the PSL, they must be added to the database prior to VHP application submission.
