Ep. 120: Ian Huyett and Andrew Ittleman on How the FDA Got Its Power Over Medicine

How far can the FDA reach into something that happens inside one state, between one doctor and one patient?

In this episode, Niklas sits down with attorneys Ian Huyett, who works on litigation and state-level health reform, and Andrew Ittleman, who represents FDA-regulated companies and litigated Regenerative Sciences v. FDA, to talk about where the FDA’s authority comes from and how it applies when a doctor treats a patient inside one state.

The conversation goes on to cover the 1938 law behind that authority, the 2014 Regenerative Sciences case, what changed after the Supreme Court’s Loper Bright decision, and how states and medical boards could share some of that power.
