235 - Dear PAAB: We have both unbranded and branded APS approved by PAAB. What are suggested and appropriate mechanisms for unbranded (HCP:patient teaching tools) and branded APS to be distributed by sales representatives, so as to not create linkage between the pieces? Are separate calls (branded and unbranded) appropriate? Is distribution of the unbranded APS (i.e. by request form, business reply card etc.) with follow-up by the sales representative specifically to discuss the unbranded APS, an acceptable way to separate the pieces?
