What is a Risk Evaluation and
Mitigation Strategy (REMS)?
REMS	
  is	
  a	
  strategy	
  to	
  manage	
  known	
  or	
  poten.al	
  serious	
  risks	
  
associated	
  with	
  a	
  drug	
  product.	
  
FDA	
  requires	
  a	
  REMS	
  for	
  extended-­‐release	
  and	
  long-­‐ac.ng	
  opioid	
  
analgesics.	
  
The	
  goal	
  of	
  the	
  REMS	
  is	
  to	
  reduce	
  serious	
  adverse	
  outcomes	
  
resul.ng	
  from	
  inappropriate	
  prescribing,	
  misuse,	
  and	
  abuse	
  of	
  these	
  
products.	
  
Developed	
  by	
  the	
  manufacturer	
  and	
  approved	
  by	
  FDA	
  
A	
  REMS	
  is	
  an	
  a^empt	
  to	
  balance	
  the	
  need	
  for	
  access	
  to	
  the	
  drug	
  
with	
  the	
  risks	
  associated	
  with	
  its	
  use	
  and	
  is	
  product	
  specific	
  
Typically	
  implemented	
  prior	
  to	
  the	
  drug’s	
  approval
