FDA Compiles Drug Approval Data into Searchable Format

The FDA has launched a compilation of drug approval information in a searchable data file for public use.

The dataset on new molecular entities and biologic approvals draws from the FDA’s internal databases and document records, presenting data in a downloadable data file.

The first edition of the compiled data includes drugs approved between Jan. 1, 1985 and Dec. 31, 2019. It will be updated periodically to include the latest drug approval data.
