An Emergency Drug Release is an authorization, under the provisions of Sections C.08.010 and C.08.011 of the Food and Drug Regulations, to permit the manufacturer of a new drug to sell a limited quantity of the new drug to a veterinary practitioner.* The new drug is one which is not marketed in Canada and is requested by the practioner for the purpose of diagnosing or treating a medical emergency in a patient under his or her care.
