Risk Management

MAHs must update labelling components to meet new criteria, including a minimum font size of 7 points and essential information requirements regarding the medicine's name, strength, route of administration, posology, warnings, and indications as per the guidance. New packaging must be incorporated into stocked products within six months of approval.

1) Retrieve and review the updated “Submitting risk management plans guidance document” (PDF) and linked templates referenced from the overview (e.g., RMP note to reviewer, Canadian-specific addendum, RMP summary template) and map deltas vs the superseded 2015 approach. 2) Update Canada submission checklists/work instructions for the 1 July 2025 effective date, including the requirement that the RMP include a summary in English and French and use of the RMP summary attestation/acknowledgment form. 3) Ask Regulatory Intelligence/RA to brief PV leadership on the Agile Licensing notice timeline (RMP provisions in force 1 April 2027) and confirm how transitional provisions will be operationalized for existing RMPs submitted prior to that date.
