Sommaire

Where a product is shown to have various properties, a right of protection may be accorded for various uses. A product's first use in a method of treatment of the human or animal body by therapy and also its use cosmetically may therefore be claimed in one and the same patent application. The cosmetic indication of a product having medical indications as well does not fall within the scope of Article 52(4) EPC and may be patentable.
