Abstract

The article reports on drug promotion related to continuing medical education (CME). It argues that sponsorship of the pharmaceutical industry in CME programs does not compromise the quality of medical research since quality measures are being implemented. It also discusses the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC) and its process of accrediting CME programs.
