    Hello RA folks, How do you interpret the substance requirements listed in Annex I- GSPR  10,4,1 through 10,4,4 for Active implantable devices? Is REACH compliance exempt for active implantable device regulated under AIMDD?

    You have seen that GSPR 10.4 covers substances which are ​carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction ('CMR'), and/or having endocrine-disrupting properties, concerning their effects on the human body.

    Next, look at the REACH Regulation, (EC) No 1907/2006, Article 57. It covers substances which are ​carcinogenic, mutagenic, toxic to reproduction, endocrine-disrupting,

    persistent, bioaccumulative and/or toxic, concerning their effects on humans and/or the environment.
