Nieuwe economische analyse laat zien dat door FDA voorgestelde generieke medicijnetikettering wet tot $4 miljard aan nieuwe gezondheidskosten zou leiden

A recently proposed Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulation affecting generic drug labeling would result in an estimated $4 billion in additional U.S. health care costs annually, according to a new analysis by economic consulting firm Matrix Global Advisors (MGA).
The FDA's Proposed Rule would permit generic drug manufacturers to initiate changes to their labels, which they currently are prohibited from doing. The agency insists that the rule would "generate little cost," but MGA finds that it would dramatically alter the legal and financial landscape for generic manufacturers and suddenly expose them to product liability lawsuits (Persbericht MGA, 5 februari 2014).
