Congress Directs FDA to Review Use of Boxed Warning and Data for Antipsychotics in Older Adults
The Alliance along with the American Society of Consultant Pharmacists (ASCP)were able to secure language in the recently enacted FY24 Appropriations Bill. The language directs the U.S. Food & Drug Administration to hold a public workshop focused on the application of black box warnings for antipsychotics, specifically in older adults.
