Forum Update: Supporting Community-Led Discussion
The forum was created as a space for shared learning and peer support, and as the community grows, we want to lean more fully into that purpose.
Going forward, PAAB will be taking a more listening-first role in forum discussions. Rather than responding immediately to every question, we’ll be encouraging members to engage with one another, share experiences, and help build collective understanding. PAAB will continue to monitor conversations and will step in to:
- Correct any misunderstandings
- Provide guidance when questions remain unanswered after a few days
- Support discussions where official clarification is needed
Our goal is to foster a collaborative, trusted community where knowledge is shared and strengthened by everyone’s contributions.
Thank you for being part of the conversation.

182 - I am hoping that you can help provide us some guidance with respect to the use of "Now on Formulary" stickers. It is our understanding that such stickers are exempt from PAAB review as long as they are not linked to a therapeutic message in any way as per Section 6.6 d(ii) of the PAAB code. In the past when we have submitted such stickers to the PAAB, we have been asked to provide examples of where a sticker will be placed on previously approved APS. This occasionally becomes a problem when trying to assess viable placement options. For us, the guiding principles have been the following:
The responses, guidance, and advisories provided by the Pharmaceutical Advertising Advisory Board (PAAB),
including but not limited to those available through the PAAB Forum, the PAAB website, and any PAAB
correspondences, are specifically intended to assist individuals navigating the PAAB preclearance system.
