It seems unbelievable that we are now halfway through FY 2023 already. (Well, the stats are halfway through the year, even though we are in month eight (8) of the FY). Time really DOES go fast when you are having fun! And now with six (6) months of data, we can provide some trends and […]
March 2023 was an outstanding month for approval actions, with OGD unofficially issuing 123 total approval actions comprised of 95 full approval actions and 18 tentative approval actions. There were other months with 100 or more total approval actions, but we have not seen that level of approval productivity in a while. The record of […]
February is a short month in workdays and it may be the same for approvals. Through February 17th, the OGD has issued twenty‑five full‑approval actions and fourteen tentative‑approval actions. With only six reporting days left this month, unless there’s a big surge in the next few days, we may be looking at the fewest approval […]

As we have noted in previous posts, the OGD has two types of approval actions for the various categories of approvals and tentative approvals. What the heck does that mean? Well, let’s take an example from this month’s approval actions. On January 24, 2023, the OGD approved one fentanyl application; however, that single application had […]
The Office of Generic Drugs reports that it approved 64 applications that were designated for competitive generic therapy (GCT) program. Since its inception, the program has approved a total of 186 (2 thus far in 2023) applications with the GCT designation. For the 2022 FY, OGD approved 69 ANDA that had GCT designation. Remember that […]
With just about half of the month gone, and given that there have already been two holidays in January, the reported number of full-approval and tentative-approval actions looks pretty promising. Through January 17th at 9 a.m. Eastern time, the OGD has listed twenty-eight full-approval actions and ten tentative-approval actions in the All Approvals database for a total […]
Well, as we predicted in an earlier post in December (here), it was postulated that the month would not be a great month for approval actions. However, OGD did issue 25 approval actions in the last nine business days of December and ended the month unofficially with 52 full approval actions and 7 tentative approval […]
As of November 16, 2022, the OGD has published the issuance of thirty‑three full‑approval actions and four tentative‑approval actions. With Thanksgiving around the corner and the predictable number of staff off on PTO, the back‑end of November might not be as productive as the first half. We will keep an eye out and post an […]
October is the first month of the fiscal year 2023 and, while not necessarily a bellwether of things to come, it is certainly the starting point of GDUFA III. The unofficial tally looks good as OGD issued 58 full approval actions and 11 tentative approval action for a total of 69 total approval actions. While […]
