-Many of the Marshall Protocol (MP) medications are prescribed "off-label", which is to say that they are employed for a purpose outside the drug's approved label. Other countries have different policies, but the US FDA has issued [[http://www.fda.gov/OC/OHRT/IRBS/offlabel.html|clear Policy Guidance]] on off-label prescriptions, clearly stating that it is up to the physician's individual judgment to decide whether an off-label drug should be used.+Many of the Marshall Protocol (MP) medications are prescribed "off-label", which is to say that they are employed for a purpose outside the drug's approved label.

 <blockquote>Good medical practice and the best interests of the patient require that physicians use legally available drugs, biologics and devices according to their best knowledge and judgment. If physicians use a product for an indication not in the approved labeling, they have the responsibility to be well-informed about the product, to base its use on firm scientific rationale and on sound medical evidence, and to maintain records of the product's use and effects. Use of a marketed product in this manner __when the intent is the "practice of medicine"__ does not require the submission of an Investigational New Drug Application (IND), an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) or a review by an Institutional Review Board (IRB). However, the institution at which the product will be used may, under its own authority, require IRB review or other institutional oversight.</blockquote> <blockquote>Good medical practice and the best interests of the patient require that physicians use legally available drugs, biologics and devices according to their best knowledge and judgment.
