RESTICTED DRUGS Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategies--REMS With each drug/biologic safety issue posing a serious risk, the question for FDA will be: to REM or not to REM? REMS---Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 in 2006 the FDA listed 156 REMS for prescription medicines (128) and biologics (28) intended to ensure the benefits of the medication outweigh its risk why REMS??--Public outcry over revelations of unforeseen risks from trusted medicines(rofecoxib, valdecoxib, and salmeterol

RESTICTED DRUGS Components of REMS FDA can require a manufacturer to implement a REMS Components of REMS 1--Medication Guides--required for drugs and biologics when the FDA determines that: (a) certain information is necessary to prevent serious adverse effects, (b) patient decision-making should be informed by information about a known serious side effect of a product, or (c) patient adherence to directions for the use of a product is essential to its effectiveness.

RESTICTED DRUGS 2--Communication Plans-- Letters to healthcare providers; Disseminating information about the REMS to encourage implementation; and Disseminating information through professional societies about any serious risks of the drug and any protocol to assure safe use.

RESTICTED DRUGS 3--Elements to Assure Safe Use(ETASU) may include one or more of the following Special training, certifications, or demonstration of experience for prescribers of the drug/biologic Certification of pharmacies, practitioners, or healthcare settings that dispense the drug/biologic Limitations as to the healthcare settings where the drug/biologic may be dispensed Evidence of special safe-use conditions--patients receive the drug/biologic only after specified authorization,proof of counseling, periodic blood tests monitor the number of prescriptions dispensed, adverse events,
