Porzio Compliance Digest (PCD): is the first Internet-based fully interactive database specifically designed to enable life sciences manufacturers, distributors and labelers to master the myriad state and federal laws, pending legislation, governing sample distribution, mid-level practitioners and marketing disclosures and prohibitions. PCD is now comprised of nine distinct databases with the recent addition of our Enforcement Action Databases:
Sales and Marketing Regulatory Compliance Databases

Enforcement Action Databases
FDA PDMA Inspections: This database contains information on Established Inspection Reports (EIRs) related to Prescription Drug Marketing Act (PDMA) inspections. Based on EIRs that PPS acquires from various government agencies, this database catalogues and synthesizes violations noted by FDA inspectors, summarizing relevant elements into a useful, searchable format.
Government Prosecutions: This database provides a comprehensive snapshot of federal government actions against Life Sciences companies that have allegedly violated Anti-Kickback laws, FDA regulations, the PDMA, and/or the False Claims Act, among others. It summarizes the evolving compliance requirements these companies have agreed to undertake as a result of corporate integrity agreements. The database also provides insight into the violations that are most often pursued by the federal government, as well as access to relevant documents, when available.
OPDP Promotional Violations: This database contains searchable summaries of Untitled and Warning letters issued to life sciences companies by the FDA’s OPDP Promotional Violations Database (OPDP). Letters are categorized in a variety of ways, including date of issuance, type of promotional material, and identified violation. This database also contains copies of the issued letters and the associated materials, when available. The functionality of this database gives users the ability to search for specific Untitled and Warning letters and related violations and assess prescription drug advertising and promotional labeling enforcement trends.
