Introducing Our Guest and the Topic at Hand

Vova: Hey there, folks! Selling medical devices on Amazon is quite a challenge.

But don't worry because today I've got a fantastic guest with me, David Miller.

He's a seasoned attorney who specializes in helping Amazon sellers with all sorts of cases.

What You Need to Know About Medical Devices on Amazon

Vova: Now, David, let's dive right in.

Can you shed some light on the intricacies of selling medical devices on Amazon?

David: Absolutely, Vova! Medical devices on Amazon fall under the watchful eye of the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA for short.

These guys are like the guardians of safety for all medical devices intended for human use.

So, whether you're selling a run-of-the-mill thermometer or a more specialized piece of medical equipment, it's all about ensuring safety.

There's a wide range of these devices, some you can buy over the counter at your local store, while others are strictly for the pros with a prescription.

It's a bit like comparing apples to oranges, right?

Now, the key thing to remember is that devices that could potentially be harmful unless they're used under the supervision of a licensed healthcare pro are classified as medical devices.

So, if you're selling one of these, you'll want to prove that it's not just for professionals.

Think of it this way: if you can stroll into a CVS or Duane Reade and pick up the product without a hassle, it's a pretty good argument that it's not exclusively for the pros.

And in that case, it shouldn't have been flagged by Amazon in the first place.

Simple, right?

How to Figure Out the Right Certificates

Vova: David, for all of us sellers out there looking to venture into selling these devices, the big question is, how do we figure out which certificates we need?

Should we be relying on our suppliers, or is there a database we can consult to make sure we're doing it right?

David: Great question, Vova!

When it comes to certificates, you typically rely on your manufacturer.

They should know whether the device is intended for professional use only.

However, there are cases where the manufacturer might not have all the correct info, so it's smart to do some digging yourself.

You can perform a search or use services that specialize in safety regulations for medical devices.

In fact, you can even reach out to the FDA directly and have them investigate for you. It might not be your first choice, especially before you know your product is a hit, but it's essential to be aware of these regulations.

Why?

Because if your product takes off and then gets flagged, it can go from a winner to a zero on Amazon, and you might not be able to sell it there again.

So, do your homework before you dive into a massive product order.

Vova: That's some solid advice, David.

It's all about being proactive and avoiding those headaches down the line.
