Did you know?...
In the United States, FDA regulations permit physicians and other healthcare practitioners to prescribe medications for other than their approved indications.
Once a drug has been approved for sale for one purpose, physicians are free to prescribe it for any other purpose that in their professional judgment is both safe and effective, and are not limited to official, FDA-approved indications.
This off-label prescribing is done even though the medications have not had the formal (and often costly) applications and studies required by the FDA to formally approve the drug for these new indications.
Access to pharmaceutical industry documents have revealed marketing strategies used to promote drugs for off-label use. The United States federal government is aggressively pursuing criminal and civil cases against pharmaceutical companies and their employees for promoting off-label uses of prescription drugs.
Thank you for ignoring this information.
