Recommendation
Mostly Aligned
Primary Issue
Predominantly non-FDA-label claims (patent/legal history and pricing/retail/coupons) are presented as if label-supported; only one adverse-reaction statement is clearly connected to section 6.
Suggested Improvement
Restrict content to FDA label sections: include only label-supported indications (section 1) and adverse reactions (section 6). Remove patent/legal, market-entry, pricing, country/retailer, and coupon/counterfeit assertions unless directly quoted from FDA labeling.
