FDA’s Division of Drug Information in the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) is excited to present our FDA Drug Topic series of educational webinars targeting the needs of all health care professionals, including physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, nurses, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, and certified public health professionals. Interact with FDA staff from a variety of divisions and learn more about the FDA and drug regulation!
On Tuesday, May 21, CDER's Office of Communication, Division of Drug Information (DDI) will host a webinar titled: FDA Drug Topics: Fraudulent Drugs: You’re Using What?. There is a whole universe of unusual products available to consumers that claim to do everything from improve your mood, lose weight, prevent illness, or cure serious diseases. Some are relatively harmless; others could cause serious injuries or even death. The goal of this presentation is to give healthcare practitioners some insights into some of the more common product types that your patients may currently be using or may resort to depending on the situation. The topics of discussion will include quick cures, chronic conditions, cough/cold/COVID, caustic topicals, and lifestyle/recreational drugs.
