Reputation And Authority: The Fda And The Fight Over U.S. Prescription Drug Importation, Thomas J. Bollyky, Aaron S. Kesselheim
Reputation And Authority: The Fda And The Fight Over U.S. Prescription Drug Importation, Thomas J. Bollyky, Aaron S. Kesselheim
Vanderbilt Law Review
There is popular and bipartisan support for legalizing the importation of lower-cost medicines from Canada to help reduce the high prescription drug costs that Americans pay. Despite the wide interest in this policy, attempts over the last sixteen years to create a formal system for large-scale prescription drug importation in the United States have failed. The Trump Administration recently issued a final rule to enable the legal importation of prescription drugs from Canada, but the rule has important design flaws and seems destined to suffer a similar fate as previous efforts.
In this Article, we argue that prescription drug importation …
(Almost) No Bad Drugs: Near-Total Products Liability Immunity For Pharmaceuticals Explained, Anita Bernstein
(Almost) No Bad Drugs: Near-Total Products Liability Immunity For Pharmaceuticals Explained, Anita Bernstein
Washington and Lee Law Review
This Article explores four beliefs about supposed pharma-benevolence that appear to be shared by more than the industry, reaching the level almost of conventional wisdom. These figurative pillars help support one-sided results in court. However, each of the pillars on examination turns out at least a bit shaky. This Article puts them forward for review to start a necessary discussion.
The locus of this Article is products liability, where a court concludes that a manufactured object is defective or could be called defective by a factfinder following a trial. Drug manufacturers enjoy near-immunity from this consequence. Modern products liability identifies …
Fighting America’S Best-Selling Product: An Analysis Of And Solution To The Opioid Crisis, Ashley Duckworth
Fighting America’S Best-Selling Product: An Analysis Of And Solution To The Opioid Crisis, Ashley Duckworth
Washington and Lee Journal of Civil Rights and Social Justice
Deaths from drug overdoses have doubled over the last ten years and are now the leading cause of accidental death in the United States. Although some overdoses may have involved more than one drug, prescription and/or illicit opioids were involved in many of these drug overdose fatalities. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and Congress have enacted a string of regulations, statutes, and programs since the early 1990s, but nothing has seriously improved the opioid epidemic as it stands. If anything, the use of opioids has persisted. Many people want pharmaceutical companies to …

Pharmageddon: A Statutory Solution To Curb Ohio's Prescription Abuse Problem, Ed Woodworth
Pharmageddon: A Statutory Solution To Curb Ohio's Prescription Abuse Problem, Ed Woodworth
Journal of Law and Health
Prescription abuse in Ohio continues to be a serious and complex issue that should be addressed. Accordingly, Part II of this Note examines the background of prescription drug abuse generally. It identifies the dangers of prescription drug abuse, the cost drug abuse places on society, some reasons for prescription drug abuse, sources of prescription drugs, and discusses the current state and federal laws regarding prescription drug abuse and prescription reporting. Part III discusses the positive and negative aspects of H.B. 93 and Medical Rule 4731-11-11 and then offers proposals to more effectively prevent prescription drug abuse. Part IV discusses various …

Blame Canada (And The Rest Of The World): The Twenty-Year War On Imported Prescription Drugs, Daniel L. Pollock
Blame Canada (And The Rest Of The World): The Twenty-Year War On Imported Prescription Drugs, Daniel L. Pollock
ExpressO
Rising budget deficits and sticker shock over the new Medicare drug benefit have put the issue of prescription drug costs back into the spotlight. The growth in the cost of prescription drugs continues to represent a staggering burden for taxpayer-funded health care programs, even while costs of non-drug health care services have slowed or even decreased. Among the many proposals for cutting prescription drug costs, drug importation is unique. Although bipartisan support for drug importation has existed in Congress for over five years, the federal government continues to maintain that a system of safe and effective drug importation is impossible. …

Internet Pharmacies And The Need For A New Federalism: Protecting Consumers While Increasing Access To Prescription Drugs, Linda C. Fentiman
Internet Pharmacies And The Need For A New Federalism: Protecting Consumers While Increasing Access To Prescription Drugs, Linda C. Fentiman
Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications
In this article I will argue that Internet pharmacies pose a significant public health problem, as they raise the classic eternal triangle of health care issues--access, quality, and financing--in a new technological context. Part II describes the phenomena of Internet pharmacies, and Part III reviews the present regulatory scheme. Part IV explains why the current legal framework is inadequate to address the public health and safety problems posed by Internet pharmacies, focusing particularly on the jurisdictional, constitutional, and practical obstacles to effective state oversight of Internet pharmacies. Part V argues that comprehensive federal oversight of Internet prescribing and dispensing is …

Direct-To-Consumer Advertising Of Prescription Drugs: After A Decade Of Speculation, Courts Consider Another Exception To The Learned Intermediary Rule, Mae Joanne Rosok
Direct-To-Consumer Advertising Of Prescription Drugs: After A Decade Of Speculation, Courts Consider Another Exception To The Learned Intermediary Rule, Mae Joanne Rosok
Seattle University Law Review
This Comment will explore whether Washington courts should recognize direct-to-consumer advertising as an exception to the learned intermediary rule. With the ultimate goal of advocating the best protection for the consumer, the discussion will suggest that Washington courts should not create an exception. A review of other exceptions to the learned intermediary rule does not support abandoning the doctrine when a drug company advertises its product directly to consumers. Nevertheless, advertising does affect consumer purchases and does influence consumer choices, and drug companies should accept the responsibility to present balanced information. This responsibility should encompass more than meeting the minimum …
International Regulatory Harmonization: A New Era In Prescription Drug Approval, David W. Jordan
International Regulatory Harmonization: A New Era In Prescription Drug Approval, David W. Jordan
Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law
Critics of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have asserted that the agency's process of reviewing new drugs has long been laden with inefficiency and waste and, as a result, new drugs are not made available to consumers on a timely basis. This Note considers the veracity of this claim by examining the history of prescription drug regulation in the United States and the current procedure by which new drugs are reviewed. This Note also addresses the limited extent to which the FDA has interacted with its foreign counterparts in assessing the safety and efficacy of new drugs and the …
Prescription Drugs And The Duty To Warn: An Argument For Patient Package Inserts, Alan R. Styles
Prescription Drugs And The Duty To Warn: An Argument For Patient Package Inserts, Alan R. Styles
Cleveland State Law Review
It has been more than ten years since the Food and Drug Administration proposed regulations which would have required detailed patient information for all prescription drugs. The proposed regulations, intended to promote the safe and effective use of prescription drugs, would have required a manufacturer to supply non-technical, non-promotional information, referred to as patient package inserts, directly to the patient. This note will analyze the need for patient information in satisfying the tort objectives of informed consent and public safety. The note will then analyze the practical effect of the learned intermediary and informed consent doctrines upon the manufacturer's and …
Thoughts On A Faded Peacock: The Effect Of Erisa's Preemption Provision On State Third Party Prescription Drug Program Statutes, Richard M. Rindler, Evan Miller
Thoughts On A Faded Peacock: The Effect Of Erisa's Preemption Provision On State Third Party Prescription Drug Program Statutes, Richard M. Rindler, Evan Miller
Vanderbilt Law Review
This Article analyzes the preemptive effect of ERISA on state third party prescription drug program legislation. It argues that such laws do not "relate to employee benefit plans" and that even if the courts were to view them as relating to employee benefit plans, the laws meet the statutory exception to preemption for state laws that "regulate . . . insurance."
The Article contends that third party prescription drug program statutes represent a type of "borderline preemption problem, and it offers a functional approach to resolve the problem. If a state law affects employee benefit plans without infringing on their …
