Event Abstract: Are you interested (or required to be interested) in the "new and improved" worldwide standards and requirements for product labeling? Well, we are, and we've invited a subject matter expert, as well as an engaging lecturer, to help refresh our understanding of the subject.
Barbara Fenelli's lecture will be a discussion of the development of worldwide product labeling and how the labeling development parallels the drug development process. She will describe how good labels include the required information about the safe and effective use of the product and can include some of the other uses, too.
Barbara will also provide an overview of the labeling requirements in the major regions, e.g., United States, European Union, showing similarities and differences between the regions. She will conclude with her analysis of some recent changes in regulations and their impact on labeling.
Barbara will specifically address: - Concurrent label and drug development - Purposes of labeling - Regional requirements for labeling - Recent labeling regulatory changes
And she will gladly accept questions from the attendees.
