I think one of the most important issues with social media in relation with pharmaceutical and other health care companies is the adverse event reporting. I understand that adverse event is a very serious issue, and they want you to report any case within 1 x 24 hours. And with this social media, people talk and people listen, and we can't control what they're saying, including adverse events, complaints, etc (and we might not be aware of it until after some time). I would really like to know if FDA will publish guidance about this. Thanks Leigh, Tania - Jakarta Hi Leigh!

If the FDASM guidelines have been published by then, though, you will have a killer panel on your hands. With or without FDA guidance, folks need to start coming out of their SoMe shells.
