The Canadian International Pharmacy Association (CIPA) has been awarded the important role for accrediting online pharmacy advertisements in Canada by Google AdWords. Announced on February 9, 2010, this new policy requires any online pharmacy websites wishing to target advertisements to Canadian audiences on Google Canada to be certified to meet CIPA safety and quality standards.

We look forward to working with Google to improve patient safety on the Internet." Read more
