Bans prescription drug companies from advertising directly to consumers
This bill would stop drug companies from advertising prescription medicines directly to the public. This means you would no longer see ads for prescription drugs on TV, social media, or in print. The change would take effect 30 days after the bill becomes law.
Today, drug companies can advertise prescription medicines directly to consumers on TV, radio, print, and social media. If this bill becomes law, drug companies would be banned from all direct-to-consumer advertising for prescription drugs. Any drug advertised this way within a 30-day period would be considered misbranded.
