The American pharmaceutical manufacturers' trade association, the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) announced July 10 that its board of directors had adopted changes to its PhRMA Code on Interactions with Healthcare Professionals. The changes, to go into effect in January 2009, will change the way pharmaceuticals salespeople sell their products to doctors. Significantly, they will no longer give away small promotional items, such as pens, coffee mugs and calendars; and they would stop paying for restaurant meals, recreation and entertainment for doctors and their staff members. Each member company will be asked to state whether it will comply with the new code.
