Town Hall on Appropriate Use Strategy

Date: Tuesday, February 4, 2025  
Time: 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. ET

Canada’s Drug Agency is finalizing a strategy to advance the appropriate use of prescription medications. The strategy will guide us in developing a collaborative, coordinated, pan-Canadian approach to appropriate use and build on the insights from our Appropriate Use Advisory Committee and the Canadian Drug Agency Transition Office’s Final Report.  

Join Jonathan Lam (Director, Appropriate Use) in a virtual Town Hall as we share elements of the Appropriate Use Strategy with an opportunity to give your thoughts and feedback during the session. This event is open to all interested parties.  

Appropriate use refers to people taking medications best suited for their needs and goals, and to providing the greatest possible benefit and avoiding potential harm. Appropriate use of medications should add value to patients, their community, the health system, and the broader environment.
