Final publication of guidelines for online pharmacy-to-pharmacy medicine marketplaces.

After an extended period available for comment, we are publishing final guidelines for online secondary pharmacy marketplaces to improve patient safety. You can read the Best Practices guidelines here.. A version showing changes from the previous draft is available here.

We will begin monitoring progress of brand protection teams and how responsive the platforms are to their requests for accounts as a first step in evaluating best practices. In September of 2025, we will begin the process of evaluation of each platform's compliance with the guidelines.
