Prescription Information Modernization Act of 2025

Key Points

• This bill allows drug companies to provide the detailed technical information about prescription drugs digitally instead of printing it on paper. This change affects the long, fine-print documents usually meant for doctors and pharmacists rather than the simple instructions patients receive at the pharmacy.
• Healthcare workers like doctors and pharmacists can still choose to receive paper copies if they prefer. Drug manufacturers would be required to send these paper versions quickly and at no extra cost to the person requesting them.
• The government will create new rules to make sure this shift to digital labels does not create extra costs for local pharmacies or medical offices. They will also hold public meetings to figure out how to make the digital information as easy to use as possible.
• If passed, these changes would take effect within two years. The plan aims to reduce paper waste and ensure that the most up-to-date information about drugs is available instantly online for medical professionals.
