Homeopathic medicines are licensed as DIN-HM in Canada. DIN (Drug Identification Number) is a number issued by Health Canada to a drug product to be sold in Canada. The number identifies all drug products sold in dosage and is located on the label of prescription drug products that have been evaluated and authorized for sale in Canada. Having this number is mandatory to sell your homeopathic medicines.
Proven Expertise. Companies that have put their faith in us to help them become regulatory compliant.
Homeopathic medicines are regulated in Canada in the same way that Natural Health Products (NHP) are. In the event that a product categorised as a drug under the Food and Drugs Act is marketed without a DIN, it does not comply with Health Canada requirements. Having a DIN-HM in Canada informs patients that the drug has been made in a way that ensures the product’s quality or if the label is comprehensive and correct.
In Canada, the Medicinal ingredient must be found in the homeopathic monograph and one of the homeopathic pharmacopoeia such as the Homeopathic Pharmacopeia of HPUS, European Pharmacopeia (Ph. Eur) among others.
Homeopathic medicine labels must be bilingual i.e. both in English and in French because these languages are considered official in Canada.
