This unique forum, designed for in-house counsel and executives, as well as private practice attorneys working for the OTC drug industry will provide invaluable insights on FDA’s most recent directives and compliance standards governing OTC drug production, marketing and distribution.

As a Senior Regulatory Counsel at FDA, she was involved in a wide variety of policy issues in the areas of drug approvals and withdrawals, the regulation of unapproved and over-the-counter drugs, and development of the OTC monograph reform.

Deb along with fellow panelists Kyle Y. Faget, Partner, Foley & Lardner LLP and Amy Replogle, Director, Rx-to-OTC Switch, Bayer will present a must-attend panel focusing on:  FDA’s recent efforts to enhance accessibility to OTC drug products that has set the stage for a wave of approved switches in the industry — a development being warmly embraced by non-prescription drug companies. This panel will analyze the recent high-profile switches shaping the OTC industry landscape, including:

• Opill
• Naloxone
• Explore what FDA has considered in approving the latest switches and hurdles industry may face in obtaining future switches
• Assessing the significance of the Opill switch and its implications on new opportunities for RX-OTC switches, particularly in the area of women’s health
