In reply to New FDA approvals: how long does this take?, posted by jealibeanz on October 8, 2006, at 8:03:38
Hi, jealibeanz.
It's nice to hear about these novel drugs in development. Thanks.
> Anyway, I'm wondering how long it would be expected for any of these medications to be approved and put on the market.
According to this OLD page, average approval times after all studies were done and the New Drug Application had been turned in during 1994-2000 was 12-15 months. http://www.fda.gov/cder/reports/reviewtimes/default.htm
It seems like in the past, companies have been ready to supply the drugs very soon after approval.
I don't know if there is more recent data.
