Multiple non-label-supported claims (approval date, revenue/forecasts, ongoing trials, and side effects) plus one contradiction regarding eosinophilic esophagitis.
Suggested Improvement
Restrict content to label-supported statements from the provided sections (mechanism and on-label indications). Remove unsupported financial/forecast and trial-expansion claims, and avoid framing already-approved indications as 'ongoing trial' uses. Provide dosage/administration only if supported by the label sections not included here.
