Important information
- Additional Info:On April 1, 2021, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued a Warning Letter to NeilMed Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The FTC reviewed the company’s website located at https://www.neilmed.com, as well as social media post located at https://www.facebook.com/sinusrinse/ and https://www.instagram.com/neilmed/and determined that NeilMed Pharmaceuticals is unlawfully advertising that their nasal irrigation products treat or prevent Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
The warning letter advised that it is unlawful under the FTC Act, 15 U.S.C. § 41 et seq., to advertise that a product can prevent, treat, or cure human disease unless you possess competent and reliable scientific evidence substantiating that the claims are true at the time they are made. For COVID-19, no such study is currently known to exist for the products identified above. Thus, any coronavirus-related prevention or treatment claims regarding such products are not supported by competent and reliable scientific evidence.
NeilMed Pharmaceuticals must immediately cease making all such claims. The FTC also advised the company to review all other claims for their products and immediately cease making claims that are not supported by competent and reliable scientific evidence.
