The revised voluntary Code, which builds on the prior 2002 version, was approved unanimously by the PhRMA Board of Directors and announced by PhRMA earlier today. The revised Code reaffirms that interactions between company representatives and healthcare professionals should be focused on informing healthcare professionals about the benefits and risks of medicines to help enhance patient care, providing scientific and educational information, and supporting medical research and takes effect in January 2009.
