Abstract:

Despite improvements in the Australian Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association’s Code of Conduct there are still a number of important weaknesses: 1) the Code of Conduct Subcommittee only considers advertising directly related to the promotion of a specific product; 2) the sanctions are too weak; 3) there is no meaningful consumer representation on the Subcommittee.

Keywords:
*letter to the editor/Australia/ Australian Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association/ Code of Conduct (Aus)/ regulation of promotion/REGULATION, CODES, GUIDELINES: COMPLIANCE, SANCTIONS, STANDARDS/REGULATION, CODES, GUIDELINES: INDUSTRY SELF-REGULATION
