FDA Cracks Down on Alternative Cancer Companies

Recently the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued warning letters to natural products companies involved in the sale of alternative "cancer cures." These companies, either by choice or by lack of knowledge were making illegal disease claims on their websites. These warning letters should serve as a wake-up call to not only the companies that received them but to any other company not in full compliance with the Dietary Supplement Health Education Act (DSHEA).

The FDA in conjunction with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) police this law which has been in effect since 1994. Thought the vast majority of natural products providers have come to understand DSHEA and are in full compliance, those which are not are running a great risk. The FDA has performed product seizures, has levied fines and stopped companies from selling non-compliant products.

Aim & Act, Inc. (www.aim-act.com) as an avid proponent of integrative cancer treatment and alternative medicines, is fully capable of working with companies to quickly and painlessly come into full regulatory compliance. Aim & Act has significant and longstanding competency in the practical application of the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). We have the ability to quickly and cheaply review marketing and sales materials for compliance with all applicable FDA and FTC regulations. We can either simply provide a write-up of suggested changes or completely rework your marketing and sales materials using our in-house experts. Additionally, if the utmost in legal protection is required, Aim & Act has a relationship with one of the best DSHEA law firms in the world. We can do an initial review and then provide the materials to that law firm to give a company an exceptionally high level of legal protection in the most cost-effective way.

Aim & Act is different from any other firm in the world because we combine marketing and scientific services for companies in the natural products industry. Our scientific services include clinical trial design and performance including all types of safety and efficacy trials. With a warning letter from non-compliance comes a substantial amount of bad publicity. One of the best ways to combat this and show customers a dedication to their health by performing primary scientific studies on your products. These scientific studies can yield a significant amount of sales points for your products and put your customers at ease.

Now is the time to act. After a warning letter has been posted, it is available for all the world to see, forever. This will lead to a poor reputation and much more in the way of legal liability. It is best to resolve any issues now quietly and privately with Aim & Act.

New Company Seeks to Make Foreign Products Safer

A small firm is taking on the problem of contaminations in international manufacturing
BOZEMAN, MONT. – With contaminations of foreign made food and drug products coming to light constantly, consumers have become increasingly and rightfully fearful about the origin of their consumable goods. For example, the contaminations of the blood thinner heparin alone killed over 100 people. The heparin was contaminated in the production process because of lax enforcement of manufacturing rules and regulations. In response to this, recent draft legislation proposed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) seeks to increase the number of foreign facility inspections and establish permanent operations in China.

In response to this growing threat to the American people, Aim & Act, Incorporated, an upstart firm is seeking to work with Chinese manufacturers to provide safer products to the United States. Aim & Act provides scientific marketing and consulting services internationally to pharmaceutical, natural products and medical device companies. With significant competency in Quality Assurance, Good Manufacturing Practices, Good Laboratory Practices as well as Process Design and Validation, Aim & Act is one of the only companies willing or able to take on this problem.

By concentrating much of its effort on Chinese companies and production facilities, Aim & Act hopes to assist foreign companies in applying the same standards of excellence in manufacturing found in the United States. Aim & Act hopes to stop other unnecessary contaminations before they happen. In less than one week, most manufacturing processes can complete a quality assurance audit. This detailed examination of each step in a manufacturing process identifies any problem areas and reduces the possibility of contaminations to virtually none.

“Inconsistencies and contaminations in manufacturing are easily avoided with a relatively minor investment of time and money” said Andrew Buirge, President of Consulting for Aim & Act, “but these kinds of contaminations are continuing to happen far too frequently and innocent people are dying because of it.”

Through a unique business model, Aim & Act bridges the traditional gap between marketing and science for foreign and domestic companies, thereby facilitating greater product uptake and return on investment for client companies.
