The final recommendations contained are a consen-
sus of the coeditors. Where there was not a consen-
sus, recommendations are those of the editor-in-
chief (JPS). Some of the recommendations in the
Guide
suggest use of agents for purposes or in dosag-
es other than recommended in product labeling. Such
recommendations are made only with due consider-
ation of the concerns by the Food and DrugAdminis-
tration about recommendations for “non-approved”
indications. Where made, such recommendations are
based on more recent experience, often outside the
USA.
In accordance with currentAmerican MedicalAssoci-
ation guidelines and Food and Drug Administration
Regulations, as a user you need to know that the
Guide
is not prepared for any single pharmaceutical
company or distributor. In the United States and Can-
ada it is distributed by multiple pharmaceutical compa-
nies and others in the health care field. The
Guide
is
not subject to any form of approval prior to publication.
NeitherAntimicrobial Therapy, Inc. nor JPS receives
reimbursement related to the
Guide
other than from
sales. Further, JPS is not and has not been a funded
investigator for any antimicrobial agents since 1974.
