31The directive thus gives two definitions of medicinal products, one ‘by virtue of their presentation’ and one ‘by virtue of their function’. A product is a medicinal product if it falls within either of those definitions (Case 060/89 Monteil and Samanni [1991] ECR I-1547, paragraphs 10 and 11). It is also settled case-law that those two definitions are to be broadly construed (see, to that effect, Case 35/85 Tissier [1986] ECR 1207, paragraph 26; Monteil and Samanni, paragraph 23, and Case C-112/89 Upjohn [1991] ECR I-1703, paragraph 16).
