WASHINGTON, D.C., July 12, 2018 – The Biosimilars Forum commends Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Commissioner Scott Gottlieb for continuing to support the growth of a vibrant biosimilars market during his latest Twitter #SundayTweetorial.

“The first step to encouraging greater uptake of biosimilars is increasing awareness across the medical community,” said Juliana M. Reed, President of the Biosimilars Forum. “Having Commissioner Gottlieb use his platform to share information about biosimilars with physicians, patients and prescribers about the benefits of biosimilars will help realize the great promise that these innovative drugs hold.
