Hi Dona,
They are basically the same. The difference is that the fees are higher for non prescription drugs like food supplements and natural weight loss products like proactol. See www.proactolcenter.com Food Supplements are non prescription drugs.
Are Food Supplements (Vitamins and Minerals),etc also rated in the ssme catregory as Medicines(Drugs)? In other words are the Registration Requirements the same?
What is difference in the two processes?
