Unapproved drugs that have never been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) continue to be commercially available, and actively marketed to both consumers and healthcare providers. In some cases, these unapproved drugs continue to be prescribed and dispensed when an FDA-approved alternative is currently available; this is putting the health and welfare of men and women at risk.

Men's Health Network is aware that unapproved drugs that have never been evaluated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are commercially available, and in some cases, proactively marketed to both consumers and physicians, even when an FDA-approved alternative is currently available. Men's Health Network position is that they may pose a serious threat to the public health.
