Natural Health Products Exempted Products Database
The Exempted Products Database will remain operational during the transition phase which means that Canadians may continue to search for products that were issued an EN, although no new products will be added as of the date of the NHP-UPLAR repeal.
The Natural Health Products Exempted Products Database allows stakeholders to search for natural health products that have been granted an exemption, in the form of an exemption number (EN), by the Minister under the provisions of the Natural Health Products (Unprocessed Product Licence Applications) Regulations (NHP-UPLAR).
