PhRMA Statement on Enactment of FDA Legislation
Date:9/27/2007

ng them. This will complement improvements in advertisements that have already occurred as a result of PhRMA's Guiding Principles on Direct-to-Consumer Advertisements about Prescription Drugs.

"Since its original enactment in 1992, PDUFA has been a resounding success for FDA, pharmaceutical research companies, taxpayers and, most importantly, patients. PDUFA has made timely review of new medicines possible without compromising FDA's strict and objective review process. As a result, more than 1,000 new medicines have been made available to patients over the past 15 years. These medicines have helped millions of people lead healthier, more productive lives, and contributed to a longer life expectancy than ever before."

The Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) represents the country's leading pharmaceutical research and biotechnology companies, which are devoted to inventing medicines that allow patients to live longer, healthier, and more productive lives. PhRMA companies are leading the way in the search for new cures. PhRMA members alone invested an estimated $43 billion in 2006 in discovering and developing new medicines. Industry-wide research and investment reached a record $55.2 billion in 2006.
