Oy Medfiles Ltd, a Nordic–Baltic CRO, is inviting you to a training event organized in Tallinn:
Crossing the borderlines – could my product be a medical device or food with a claim?
Recently more and more “drug like” products have entered on the market via other product categories. There are eye drops available as medical devices, food supplements with diverse health claims and cosmetic products indicated for treatment of hoarse throat. The regulatory status for the products on the borderline between medicinal products and food products, cosmetic products and medical devices can be difficult to determine and the field seems to become more complex all the time. Conflicting law decisions and continuous updating of regulations make it even more confusing.
In this event you will learn the basics how to determine the status of a borderline product – the appropriate product class for your new invention or product idea. You will also gain a deeper understanding on two product groups and related legislations – medical devices and foods with claims. For more detailed information, please see the program below.
After the event you are more aware of what makes the difference between particular product groups and what are the regulatory aspects that you need to take into account when working with medical devices or products under the food law in EU.
