Symptoms of cirrhosis may be similar to those of severe alcoholic hepatitis. Cirrhosis is the most advanced type of alcohol-related liver disease and is not reversed with abstinence. However, abstinence may improve the symptoms and signs of liver disease and prevent further damage.
Standard Patent Fees. As of 2011, the standard patent application fee is $400 Canadian dollars. Additional fees will need to be paid if the inventor requests an examination of the patent. The fee for this is CA$800. Applicants who have previously filed patent applications can request priority status.
First, do some preliminary research. Google allows you to research patents at google.com/patents. You can also look at the United States Patent and Trademark Office site to see if your crazy idea has already been patented. If it looks as if you have a unique product, file a provisional patent application with the patent office. That costs $65 to $260, depending on how many pages your patent needs, and is far simpler to do on your own than filing a formal patent claim.
