I am in favor of including provision for mandatory informed consent for the "off-label" prescription and use of medications.  Patients can be trusted to be the decision-makers concerning their health and well-being and should be informed of all the details concerning the medication their doctors recommend, including benefits & risks and whether or not the FDA has tested and approved the drug for the use in which it is being prescribed, so that they can make a truly informed decision.

Thank you for your consideration.

Respectfully,

Kristin Schuchmann
