Informed Consent & Off-Label Prescription

From Health Is Number One · 00:55:44

Show by DrCraigWax

Dr. Renee Kohanski, forensic psychiatrist, licenses in NJ, CT and FL, sits down with Dr. Wax to discuss informed consent and off-label prescribing. Informed consent is your right for any medical procedure, test or medication. You have the right to know risks, benefits, alternatives and have the right to say, "no." Off-label prescription takes place when a physician uses a medication for a different use than its original US FDA approval, "indication." You have the right to try medication for any purpose as long as the physician sees fit and willing to try it.
