Protecting your patients from illegitimate medicines

ACTEMRA is available only through authorized distributors that have made a commitment to product integrity.

Be cautious of new or unfamiliar distributors that offer ACTEMRA at substantially lower prices that may be "too good to be true"; the product being offered may be illegitimate.

If you suspect that you have received an illegitimate medicine, contact Genentech's Product Complaint Hotline at 1-800-334-0290, and file a report with the FDA’s Office of Criminal Investigations (OCI): call 1-800-551-3989 or visit www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/email/oc/oci/contact.cfm
