Primary Issue
Many extracted claims are not supported by the provided FDA labeling excerpts and include non-label business/regulatory topics (online purchasing, pricing/insurance, patents/generics) and safety statements framed in a way not explicitly supported (e.g., 'without medical supervision').
Suggested Improvement
Limit claims to label-supported information: labeled indications for ADHD (adults and pediatric patients 6+) and BED (adults), and the boxed warning theme (abuse/misuse/addiction). Remove or reframe non-label regulatory/business statements and avoid unsupported causal linkages (e.g., 'without medical supervision') unless explicitly present in the label text provided.
