By using a supplemental application, they only need to show efficacy for a new indication, e.g. depression, rather than the original NDA which was for irritable bowel syndrome. Makes you wonder what the side effects of this one might be, as there are two kinds of IBS.....diarrhea predominant and constipation predominant (as well as one that alternates, which some argue is a variant of the constipation predominant). Anyway, I digress.
