The second stage is clinical investigation. During this stage, researchers study the different ways the drug will interact with a person’s body. There are 20 too 100 healthy people that will volunteer with the disease. It will take a few months during the first phase. After each phase, the number of volunteers and the length of time

When a pharmaceutical company creates a new drug, it has to go through the FDA and is required to submit a New Drug Application (NDA) to the FDA. The FDA reviews the application to assure that there is an objective proof that the proposed drug is safe and effective. If the

H.R. 1247/S.297, the Improving Veterans Access to Quality Care Act of 2015 (would allow NP’s full practice authority within the VHA system)

Currently, the law requires NPs to obtain physician approval during care of a patient that include managing patient health, conducting assessments, ordering/prescribing medications, lab tests, and medical devices with the supervision of a physician or surgeon. The requirement makes it challenging for NPs to provide care and limits the accessibility of care

In 2008, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the use of Moxatag, a once daily extended release formulation of amoxicillin, for the treatment of streptococcal pharyngitis. The clinical study results indicated that Moxatag was as safe and effective as penicillin V, the first drug of choice for the treatment of pharyngitis (Infectious Disease Society of America, 2013). Moxatag is the only once daily medication FDA approved for the treatment of pharyngitis. The manufacturer claims that once daily dosing will improve compliance, thus improving patient outcomes. Moxatag is very expensive relative to immediate release penicillin. Price comparisons found a difference of 144 dollars between Moxatag and the next equivalent medication. There are equivalent alternative medications, although these medications have their own drawbacks, being off label, intramuscular injectable or increased doses per day. Also, on August 25, 2014 it was announced that a generic for Moxatag is being produced (Fera, 2014), which will introduce a lower cost once daily alternative. Once this medication is introduced, it may offer a better option than the current alternatives to Moxatag. For the time being, however, I believe that with good prescribing practices, these current alternatives are effective and significantly less expensive, which make Moxatag unnecessary to prescribe.

As senior advisor of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), I understand that you must have thousand of proposals being addressed to you everyday. I also understand that the FDA is responsible for tests that use dogs, primates and other species as test subjects to meet legal safety requirements. (Navs.org) At the same time, I, and millions of other people believe that the laws on animal experimentation need to be reviewed. This is a topic that has been given a lot of attention for the past decade. Everyday, hundreds of news articles are written arguing about whether or not animal experimentation should be stopped. Many of these articles reveal the pain and

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is devoted to the safekeeping of citizens wellbeing by managing food items, human and primate prescription pharmaceuticals, therapeutic gadgets, maquillage products, tobacco commodity and an array of other articles consumers utilize . They also administer drugs, biologics, and electronic items that give off radiation.

Across the United States, access to healthcare is a growing problem. For example, citizens are not allowed access to potentially life saving medications, if they have not been approved by the FDA. Now, in theory, this should be a fine system by which the FDA, a federal government organization dedicated to medication research and safety, receives research on new experimental drugs and either approves, requires more research, or denies it. This is the case, but with one drastic problem: restrictions and time. The FDA is notoriously known for the numerous amount of years it takes them to approve a medication for access to doctors to prescribe. Unlike other parts of the civilized world, where drugs, like mifamurtide which is used to treat a

Today’s world is facing many challenges given the growing concerns and current repercussions of environmental climate change and demands of a growing global population. Not only is climate change effecting the worlds ecosystems, human health and fresh water resources, it is drastically effecting the worlds agriculture. Unpredictable weather such, as rising temperatures, colder temperatures, excessive flooding, and droughts are just a few of the increasing weather instabilities, which are challenging and threatening today’s agriculture growth and production. As such, crop yields continue to decline and present a risk to future food security. As a world, we are facing an adaptation deficit leaving us very vulnerable and thus, we must seek to

After all research has been conducted including the testing of all animal and human studies associated, the New Drug application is completed by the drug developer. The results provided are used by the FDA to determine whether the drug is approved or the recommendation of further testing. Finally phase four is based on the monitoring of the drug’s risks and benefits monitored by various sponsors hired by the FDA.
