Requirements around the OTC Monograph Reform, the Over-the-Counter Monograph User Fee Program (OMUFA), and the OTC Monograph Order Requests (OMORs) are about to become clearer. The FDA is expected to release additional guidance soon — and this free webinar can help one understand the next steps.

Through our experts, attendees will find out whether these changes will impact you and how one can navigate the shifts with expertise and savvy.

One particular change: With the passage of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act in March 2020, it is likely that all OTC drug manufacturers will need to pay a user fee, similar to those established under the Generic Drug User Fee (GDUFA) and Prescription Drug User Fee (PDUFA). The Act will also create new opportunities for innovation and help finalize the large number of pending monographs in many of the OTC drug therapeutic categories.

During this detailed conversation, medical device identification expert Gary Saner will speak with regulatory attorney Carolina M. Wirth about opportunities for growing an OTC portfolio and the complicated compliance issues that may arise during that effort. The pair will discuss OTC monograph reform, provide clarity on the industry’s current regulatory expectations and answer questions about how these requirements may impact a business.

We will cover:
