Joint Statement on Antisubstitution Laws and Regulations

Joint Statement on Antisubstitution Laws and Regulations The purpose of this statement is to affirm the support of the participating organizations for the laws, regulations, and professional traditions that prohibit the unauthorized substitution of drug products. Traditionally, physicians, dentists and pharmacists have worked cooperatively to serve the best interest of patients. Productive cooperation has been achieved through mutual respect as well as a common concern for the ideals of public service. This mutual respect has been reflected, in part, by joint support over the years for the adoption and enforcement of laws and regulations specifically prohibiting unauthorized substitution and encouraging joint discussion and selection of the source of supply of drug products. The basic principles of medical, dental, and pharmacy practice are thus utilized and preserved in the interest of patient welfare. The antisubstitution laws have not obstructed enhancement of the professional status of pharmacy any more than they have, in and of themselves, guaranteed absolute protection http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png JAMA American Medical Association
