Past event: Rx-to-OTC Switch Summit

Switching drugs from prescription (Rx) to over-the-counter (OTC) status is a commercial strategy that has been growing in popularity. Successful switches are as much an art as a science, and it has become increasingly apparent that switch teams must revise their best practices in strategy, marketing, sales, clinical research, regulatory affairs, medical writing, labeling, and packaging if they are to effectively collaborate and lead an Rx product through the switch to OTC.

Now in its fifth consecutive year, our Rx-to-OTC Switch Summit is the most advanced thought leadership event experts can attend to discuss all aspects of a switch, from the NDA process to the final over-the-counter product; analyze current trends, and prepare for future switches. Whether you are exploring your chances of tapping into the very lucrative OTC marketplace or are an expert in the field, this conference will provide detailed presentations, intensive case studies and collaborative panel discussions relevant to your interests.

Top Five Reasons to Attend:

  1. Discuss key research on branding with respect to the OTC consumer shopping and choice experience
  2. Explore how to use new technologies, new ways of thinking, and new regulatory developments to advance consumer self-care
  3. Analyze evolving legislation and the changing laws and regulations impacting OTC products
  4. Learn how key indication, safety and dosing messages from Rx labeling get translated to ''consumer-friendly'' Drug Facts label (DFL) language
  5. Design intuitive, effective comprehension alternate models to expand consumer access
