Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about pharmaceutical commercial production.

What are fair balance requirements?
Fair balance requires that product benefits be presented alongside a balanced presentation of risks, including Important Safety Information (ISI). For broadcast, the FDA requires a major statement of risks in the audio track. Our medical commercial production team ensures fair balance is integrated creatively rather than tacked on, maintaining both compliance and viewer engagement.
How long does the MLR review process take?
Medical-legal review timelines vary by organization but typically range from 2 to 6 weeks per review cycle. We plan for two to three cycles in our standard schedule, with the review department's capacity and the complexity of claims being the primary variables. Early MLR engagement is key to staying on timeline. For a detailed breakdown of costs across project types, see our commercial production pricing guide.
What is the difference between DTC and HCP pharmaceutical videos?
Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) videos target patients and caregivers with accessible language, emotional storytelling, and clear calls to action. Healthcare Professional (HCP) videos target physicians and clinicians with deeper clinical data, mechanism-of-action detail, and prescribing information. Many campaigns require both versions, which we can produce efficiently from shared production assets.
