Statement from FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb, M.D., on agency’s continued efforts relating to compounded drugs for patients who cannot use an FDA-approved drug



As a physician, I understand how important it can be for health care providers to treat patients with compounded drugs when a patient’s needs cannot be met by FDA-approved drugs. But because compounded drugs are not FDA-approved, it’s important for patients and the medical community to have access to information about the quality of these products. I’m also committed to developing policies and conducting oversight in a manner that seeks to promote use of FDA-approved drugs and minimize the risks to patients who are prescribed a compounded drug.
