Résumé

A new regulation for substance-based medical devices. Patients commonly turn to herbal products or natural substances to stay healthy. The new European regulatory framework for medical devices, which is increasingly demanding in terms of quality and safety, provides clarification on the use of products based on complex substances, particularly those of natural origin, in an allopathic therapeutic context.
