All Episodes FDA: F*** Around and Find out Episode 9

“Good Intentions, Bad Paperwork”
Meet the city doc everyone loved — champion of public health, hero of harm reduction, and the driving force behind making Narcan accessible without a prescription. But when his passion for helping people collided with the rigid rules of an HIV clinical trial, things got messy. This episode dives into how one man’s altruism, while admirable, ran head-first into FDA regulations, resulting in a 483B. It’s a cautionary tale of how even the best intentions need a protocol to match.
