Company Summary

After the FDA approves a drug for a specific purpose it can be legally prescribed for a different purpose that has not been tested or approved by the FDA. Despite increased use of off-label drugs, there is little off-label information easily available to physicians and patients. GoToPills delivers off-label alerts, approved uses, adverse events, and litigation trends to increase patient safety and decrease physicians' liability risks.
