Synopsis As Introduced
Creates the Prescription Drug Ethical Marketing Act. Requires every manufacturer and labeler that sells prescription drugs in the State to disclose to the Director the value, nature, and purpose of any gift, fee, payment, subsidy, or other economic benefit provided in connection with detailing or promotional or other marketing activities by the company, directly or through its pharmaceutical marketers, to any physician, hospital, nursing home, pharmacist, health benefit plan administrator, or any other person in the State authorized to prescribe or dispense prescription drugs. Requires the Director to report to the Governor and the General Assembly on the disclosures. Provides exceptions to the disclosures. Provides for injunctive relief and civil penalties for failure to disclose.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything. Inserts provisions substantially similar to those of HB 656, except: provides that "labeler" does not include a retail pharmacy or pharmacist that labels a prescription vial; and excludes pharmacists from language requiring manufacturers and labelers to disclose gifts, fees, payments, subsidies, and other economic benefits to certain persons.
