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.
391 - Are notes to HCPs allowed to be attached to PAAB material or approved studies. If not, where is this referenced in the code.

PAAB approved ads should be used exactly as approved otherwise it’s not really “preclearance” (e.g. without modification through inclusion of additional notes affixed to the piece). Affixing notes to independently generated materials could cause them not to be exempt. It is a best practice to have clear internal regulations either prohibiting use of notes in this manner or explaining the limited cases in which such notes can be used (e.g. best to restrict this to administrative notes like “sorry I missed you” and/or contact info).
