As a pharmaceutical writer, one must adhere to
the rules set forth by the Food and Drug Administration. If one
is not adherent and a complaint is registered, both you and the
company are liable.
Your entire copy, not just key phrases and claims is under
constant scrutiny. A successful pharmaceutical writer can
withstand the surveillance. Restrictions are placed on making
any claims of treatment or cure by any product unless it has
been approved by the FDA for that exact purpose.
A pharmaceutical writer knows the acceptable phrases like claims
where a product or medicine can support or promote good health
regarding a particular ailment.
So too, an effectual pharmaceutical writer is familiar with
Federal Trade Commission guidelines, put in place to protect the
public from any bogus or misleading claims. All assertions must
have full documentation.
Inference by exclusion of information is likewise forbidden to
the pharmaceutical writer. When clinical tests infer something
or find adverse reactions, this must be included as well. If
not, dire consequences will be occur.
Pharmaceutical copy must not only adhere to strict guidelines,
it must also be concise and easy to understand.
There is nothing more rewarding than writing pharmaceutical copy
as it not only promotes a product or medicine but that it does
so for the common good of the public.
