If a doctor prescribes a drug for a condition not approved by the FDA, they open themselves to legal liability.
- Vecr 6y agoSure, but that kind of makes sense for why the FDA acts like they do, if you want more risky off-label treatments without the large studies the FDA requires, your doctor (and you) can take the risk at your (and their) option.
- refurb 6y agoYes, but published data, other physician usage and guidelines are defenses for liability. As I said, in oncology the vast majority of treatments are off-label.
