There are a number of differences between a college Microsoft PowerPoint presentation and a presentation created for your work. A lot of these tips might seem like common sense, but it is the fin

According to USFDA, a combination product is one composed of any combination of a drug and device; biological product and device; drug and biological product

er points of a presentation that your audience will pick up on, and which will define how much they take from it and if they take it seriously.

The following is a checklist containing the more co

; or drug, device, and biological product and fixed dose combination would include two or more combinations of drug.

Examples of combination products may in

mmon points to look for when creating a presentation for your work. It is a good idea to print something like this out and go over it before you turn your presentation in for any kind of review.

lude drug-coated devices, drugs packaged with delivery devices in medical kits, and drugs and devices packaged separately but intended to be used together.

Use a Template - If you can, you should use the standard template that your company, project, etc. uses for PowerPoint presentations when creating your own presen

here is enormous increase in the number of combination products entering the market in the recent years. Combination products have proven advantages but fixe

tation. This is what your audience will most likely be expecting, and if not (for instance in the case of a new client) this is what you want them to expect from here on out.

d dose combinations are still in the process of convincing regulatory authority on their advantages over the single ingredient formulations.

Combination pro

Consistent Font Style - You should use a consistent font style throughout your presentation. Places where exceptions to this rule could occur are:

Cover Slide
ucts have become life saving products for the pharmaceutical companies who doesn’t have many innovative molecules in their product pipeline and have been inc
ong> - The first slide in your presentation will usually have fonts, etc. that are not found in the rest of your presentation. This is fine, as it can be standard slide for your company's present
easingly used in the product life cycle management. Even the companies having product patents are trying to extend their product life cycle through the combi
tions, or just the standard for your project. It also can be the attention grabber for the presentation, so you will actually want it to stand out.

Headers/Footers - Th

nation products and maximize the revenues. But the companies involved in this practice are overlooking that they are burdening the patients both economically

e header and/or footer for each slide is usually part of the template that you and your company use for PowerPoint presentations, so it is most likely not going to be in the same font as the body

and physically. They need to rightly judge the benefits of the combination products and they have to even look at the risks involved when combining the produ

f your slides.

Other than the above two examples, you should use a consistent font style across sections of your slides. For example, your body text on each slide should share the sa

ts. Some of the combination products were well accepted by physicians while others suffered. Companies involved in development of combination products are fi

me font, as well as any headers or footers that exist outside of your template.

Refrain from using Clip Art - While it may seem ingenious at the time to make a sl

ding difficulty in defining their combination products and facing various challenges from selecting a combination to marketing it.

Following aspects would a

ide with a big "Idea" light bulb on it, it won't win you any points with your audience. Clip Art is very generic and really adds nothing to the presentation, it just clutters it

dd to the challenges in developing combination products:

Which markets to tap where the combination products can do fairly well?
Which combination prod

p. On the other hand, if you want to use actual pictures of your subject matter, that's fine.

Use Bulleted Thoughts - One of the biggest mistakes that you can ma

cts are meaningful and rational?
Which therapeutic categories to select?
Which Combinations can address unmet needs of the patients?
Do combin

ke when putting a presentation together is putting too much information on the slide. This usually occurs when paragraphs are used instead of concise and bulleted thoughts. The point of each sli

tions increase the patient compliance?
What would be the developing cost?

e is not to be a Word document; it is just supposed to have points that you can talk to while doing your presentation. Too much information per slide will quickly cause your audience to lose inte

As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel

rest and you can pretty much give up hope of them walking away having learned anything. Be concise, and strive to only bring across your main points to each slide.

Get Peer R

ping new procedures for reviewing their safety, efficacy and quality.

Professional from academic institutions, pharmaceutical industries, health care indust

viewed - This is probably the most important piece of advice to remember. Before you turn your work in, you should always get it peer reviewed as well as reading it through yourself.

y and representatives from various regulatory agencies are working out to design the regulatory requirements for manufacture and sale of combination products

It's easy to get lost in your project when you've been "in the weeds" for a long time, so it's always a good idea to take a step back and have somebody else take a look at it. It's also a good

.

As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de

dea to put it away for a little bit and then go through the presentation again yourself to get a fresh perspective on it.

The above tips are a good start to a checklist that you can use befo

elopment. They need to be wiser in analyzing the market trends and the regulatory requirements.

Companies that provide selfless information through particip
