FTC seeks removal of misleading painkiller ads by top firms
The FTC charges leading nonprescription analgesic ads mislead about therapeutic differences. Firms named include American Home Products Corp and Bristol-Myers Squibb with products Angéa, Anacin, Excedrin, and Bayer with Bayer Aspirin and related brands. The agency seeks corrective ads and disclosure of caffeine or aspirin content. The NAS FDA review finds labeling claims often unsupported. FTC may pursue further action.
