Think of off-label as a boutique compared to the massive retail outlet. The cost of the therapy is crucial. We have no idea as to the costs and thus the frequency of outright purchase without insurance. That will be a 2014 issue. The FDA does look at "off-lable" uses of their drugs and if off-lable use passes a threshold, they will come down hard on the manufacturer. Case in point is the on-going war between the FDA and the vitamin/supplement market place.

Bottom line. Off lable use won't make a drug company successful. Only drugs approved by the FDA will make a company successful.
