Exemption for unbranded tool of single product within category
-
If there is only one product available on the market within a particular category, would the tool be considered exempt from preclearance if the tool talks about the MOA of the category?

Hello @natbourre
An unbranded APS can be considered exempt if it discusses only disease information without any mention of or allusion to drugs/medications/pharmacotherapy. Because the tool would be alluding to medication/pharmacotherapy via discussion of MoA, the APS would not be considered exempt.
