As a result of the Mensing case the legal rights of more than 80 % of America’s population was placed at risk. If you are injured as a result of taking a generic drug, you have no legal rights for the failure to warn of the dangers known to be associated with that drug . See http://www.
-The proposed regulations permit generic drug companies to initiate CBE changes (overturning the Mensing decision).
-The proposed regulations also require all generics to conform their labeling to an approved CBE change within 30 days. Previously, the regulations only required them to do this as soon as possible.
-Lastly, both brands and generics now may use the CBE process to add new warnings to the “Highlights” section of a new drug labels. This was previously restricted.
