Michael has also been invited to contribute his expertise in meetings with both the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Office of the United States’ Solicitor General to discuss issues involving pharmaceutical preemption. Most recently, Michael spoke at FDA’s Stakeholder Meeting “Supplemental Applications Proposing Labeling Changes for Approved Drugs and Biological Products” in support of FDA’s proposed rule that would make generic prescription medications safer and would hold generic manufacturer’s accountable for their failure to warn of dangerous adverse side effects associated with their drugs.
