PMCPA Social Media Guidance 2023

The PMCPA has published new guidance on social media use for pharmaceutical companies. This covers:

  • Types of social media content and how it can be shared

  • Acceptable uses of social media for providing patient support, making company announcements, advertisements and more

  • Overarching considerations for all social media activity including pharmacovigilance responsibilities and other relevant laws, regulations, and guidelines to follow

It helps set simple expectations of what is required for PV and removes any excuses to not appropriately train staff and turn a blind eye to online sources.
