The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is announcing the reissuance of a revised draft guidance for industry (Revision 2) entitled “Brief Summary and Adequate Directions for Use: Disclosing Risk Information in Consumer-Directed Print Advertisements and Promotional Labeling for Prescription Drugs.” We are reissuing the revised draft guidance to incorporate animal prescription drugs. This reissued revised draft guidance, when finalized, will assist manufacturers, packers, and distributors (firms) of human prescription drugs, including biologics, and animal prescription drugs, with meeting the brief summary requirement for prescription drug advertising and the requirement that adequate directions for use be included with promotional labeling for prescription drugs when print materials are directed toward consumers.
