If you're involved in or follow opioid manufacturing, you'll want to follow the FDA's focus on manufacturers of certain opioid drug products. FDA indicates that these drugs will be required to have a Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) to ensure that the benefits of the drugs continue to outweigh the risks. The affected opioid drugs include brand name and generic products and are formulated with the active ingredients fentanyl, hydromorphone, methadone, morphine, oxycodone, and oxymorphone. The FDA has authority to require a REMS under the Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007 (FDAAA) when necessary to ensure that the benefits of a drug outweigh the risks. You can expect to hear more about this over the next several months from the FDA.

There is a new OTC pain reliever that was announced this morning called Cobroxin by a biotech called Nutra Pharma - http://www.nutrapharma.com/newsroom/display.php?newsid=133 It is apparently going to compete directly with opioid-based analgesics.
