FDA Untitled Letters to Pharmaceutical Companies
Summary
The FDA's CDER Freedom of Information Office has published a list of 34 untitled letters issued to pharmaceutical companies between February 2026 and September 2025. These letters address promotional communications for various prescription drugs, indicating potential violations of FDA regulations regarding drug advertising and promotion.
What changed
The FDA has released a compilation of 34 untitled letters issued by the Office of Prescription Drug Promotion (OPDP) to pharmaceutical companies. These letters, dated from late 2025 through early 2026, address specific promotional communications for various prescription drugs, including OZEMPIC®, TREMFYA®, VYVGART HYTRULO®, and others. The untitled letters signify that the FDA has identified potential violations of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act relating to the promotion of these drugs.
Pharmaceutical companies receiving these letters must review their promotional materials and ensure compliance with FDA regulations. While untitled letters do not carry the same weight as warning letters, they indicate a need for immediate corrective action to prevent further violations. Companies should verify that their marketing and promotional activities accurately represent the drug's benefits and risks, and do not make unsubstantiated claims. Failure to address the concerns raised in these letters could lead to more severe enforcement actions, such as warning letters or other penalties.
What to do next
- Review promotional materials for compliance with FDA regulations
- Ensure marketing claims accurately reflect drug benefits and risks
- Address any identified violations promptly to avoid further enforcement
