The FDA greatly investigates these companies to make sure that food, human and veterinary drugs, medical devices, cosmetics, and electronic products are safe to sell to the public. If the products turn out to be unsafe, the company will have to announce a recall. In this scenario, the FDA had yet to investigate Pro Health’s new product ProBio. Before then, Pro Health had found out that ProBio had the same brand name as another product already out for purchase. Having the same brand name as another product is also one of the things that are against the FDA’s regulations because this could protect the consumer from buying the wrong drug because of the similar names.
The importance of the blue ocean strategy is that it keeps companies looking for untapped markets, which will provide new goods and services for the consumer. A product or service that might be considered a blue ocean move can be as simple as mixing alcohol and energy drinks packaging them and selling to the public. Anheuser-Busch could do this as long as the energy drinks do not contain caffeine. Mixing alcohol and energy drinks is not a new idea, but in November of 2010 the Food and Drug Administration declared caffeine an illegal and unsafe additive to manufactured alcoholic beverages. So now breweries cannot manufactures energy drinks with alcohol.
Codeine is a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved drug which branches from the opioid analgesics which reduces and/or eliminates pain. It’s in medicine and is similar yet weaker than morphine. When used, one needs to follows doctor’s orders just like every other medication, because it may result in addiction if the prescription is not followed. It also connects to the human nervous system. Although Codeine is legal in the United States, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) supervise its manufacturing because it’s only legal with a prescription.
Unfortunately, these decisions did not come to me as intuitively as I would have liked. I later analyzed the issues to gain a comprehensible perception of each issue. An analysis of the stakeholders was conducted to identify low to high risks for the shareholders and the CEO of G-BioSport. My conclusion was based on the duties that I should advocate ethically within the company and of personal belief which was to disseminate the information broadly regarding risk for specific groups, and offer to refund or replace the contaminated products at the purchase
Gary encountered ethical issues when the proposal was submitted that the material could withstand up to 155 degrees which is a stretch because the material could only withstand up to 130 degrees, using STI’s money to test new materials without informing them, withholding information about the age life of the new material and not sending out the technical data ahead of time to the clients so they could analyze it before the meeting allowed the clients to question Gary’s integrity. Gary encountered potential legal and contractual issues related to breach of contract due to the false information submitted in the proposal about the degrees the material to withstand and using STI money to text new materials without telling the clients. Additionally Gary did not communicate with his team or with the clients and was only able to focus on one task at a time. Gary did not utilize any project management tools or processes therefore he was unable to give proper oversight over the project. My recommendation to
There are many ways in which prescription fraud can occur. Because of the plethora of ways, pharmacists must be alert and responsible in their actions. Many seem to believe that electronic prescribing has been found to reduce the number of errors and statistics and data reflects that. America cannot be ignorant in this matter. The new electronic system not being implemented is like going through life with a contagious deadly disease, you have the money for the cure, but yet you complain, sulk, and feel sorry for yourself instead of going to get the cure.
(b) The ethical issues are non-disclosed inefficiencies in the production methods. The managers who did contemplated and did not disclose the information. The managers also were thinking of covering up the mistakes behind the headlines of Princess Diana’s death and Mother Teresa’s
Under this situation, if the other members just conform blindly for the fear of being left alone by others, the out-of-date food sold in the market might hurt the health of the consumers and negatively harm the company’s long term benefit in the end. On the other hand, there is also another reason why we should avoid conformity that is because to conform blindly to the former conclusion might limit the process of innovation. Think about all the great inventions in human history, none of them is result of conformity but instead they are the result inventor’s innovation and the result of breaking the stereotype. Only by getting rid of conformity can we increase the speed of a society’s
Unlike medications, supplement Dietary Supplements 3 makers do not have to prove their products are safe or effective. The FDA, however, can force a supplement from the market if it proves it is unsafe (nutrition.about.com, n.d.). Dietary supplements can be good for the body if there are substances lacking in the body. If a person has diseases, supplements can help control them. It is best to consult a doctor before taking supplements because they can interact with medications, causing bad reactions.
Recycling Should Be Mandatory Non-biodegradable waste poses a great challenge to environment conservation efforts. This is simply because this kind of waste does not decompose naturally leaving profound effects on the environment. The lack of a proper disposal mechanism puts the world at a poor position in as far as environment conservation is concerned. This calls for government intervention through regulations to revamp the campaign for both the preservation and conservation of Mother Nature. Disposal techniques such as burning and using dumpsites only push the environment further down the drain (Logomasini, 1); since such waste disposal methods bring about environmental concerns as well.
