President Trump’s Food and Drug Administration is cracking down on the “endless” barrage of pharmaceutical advertisements Americans are hit with on a daily basis, FDA Commissioner Marty Makary said on the latest episode of “Pod Force One.”
“It’s getting out of control. It’s distorting the doctor-patient relationship, these endless pharmaceutical ads,” Makary told “Pod Force One” host Miranda Devine .
The FDA commissioner explained that ensuring Americans are not misled by drugmakers is “something doctors are united on,” and his agency is closely watching how Big Pharma markets directly to consumers.
“The FDA had been lax in enforcing the regulations on pharma ads, on them being misleading,” Makary said. “We have regulations that they have to provide a fair balance of information.
