Health Canada provides relevant information on issues that concern the health of Canadians, such as public advisories and warnings, information updates and foreign product alerts.

Health Canada is actively engaged in making certain Canadians have access to safe and effective drugs and health related products as well as attempting to reduce the incidence of disease and conditions adversely affecting the public.

Alerts may include adverse reactions related to the use of pharmaceuticals, blood products, herbal products and vaccines. Problems related to the use of cosmetics, household products, child-related products, medical devices or pesticides and food products are also included.
