ABSTRACT

Off-label use is widely happened in medical practice. But for now, there is no clear legalistic demarcation for the behaviour of off-label use. Even in medical and legal fields, the consensus has not been reached. Once the behaviour of off-label use caused medical damage, it is difficult for appraisal profession to provide a clear demarcation. This article reviews the status of clinical domestic and foreign off-label use, the research status in the fields of laws and regulations and the basic consensus of domes-tic off-label use, for peer reference.
