DDMAC Praises Drugmakers for Ad Improvements, But Says More Work Needed

February 23, 2011
FDA officials have seen an improvement in the advertising and promotional materials released by drugmakers in the last year, but are warning that the industry still has significant work to do to meet all of the agency’s standards.
