Welcome to the January 16, 2018, issue of Pharma Industry News Update (aka PinUp). FDA is much in the news these days.

Welcome to the January 9, 2018, issue of Pharma Industry News Update (aka PinUp). This issue focuses on communications, which can be misleading or TMI.

For pharma, 2017 saw a few highs in terms of money spent on lobbying - mostly to counteract calls for lower drug prices - and on TV advertising. Neither of which is surprising.
