Search Health Canada Recalls and Safety Alerts
Search Health Canada's Recalls and Safety Alerts for health products, from Assyro's daily copy of Health Canada's open data (Open Government Licence - Canada): recalls and advisories on drugs, medical devices, natural health products, biologics and vaccines, radiopharmaceuticals and veterinary drugs, current and archived, each with Health Canada's record number, title, product, issue, category, recall class in Health Canada's words (Type I, Type II, Type III; advisories have none), the issuing branch, the last-updated date and the notice page. Find by words, product, issue ("packaging", "contamination", "performance"), category ("natural health products", "radiology"), recall class or last-updated date. The open data gives only the last-updated date (not the recall start date) and no lot numbers or recalling firm: read the notice page for those. Food, vehicle and consumer-product notices are not held. No notice found is not evidence that a product was never recalled or is safe. Call read_health_canada_recall for the whole notice.
