As an organization, NMHA is concerned with the inappropriate prescribing of medications; however, we are also concerned about the potential to conclude from the study by Radley et al,1 that all off-label prescribing is inappropriate. The study's conclusion that off-label use of medications lacks rigorous scientific scrutiny has strong implications and could lead to a false assumption about the usefulness of off-label prescribing.
