MANILA, Philippines 鈥� The Anti-Red Tape Authority (Arta) wants an office under the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to explain why 鈥渉undreds of drug applications鈥� have not been approved despite the submission of complete requirements by the pharmaceutical companies.
Arta issued a show-cause order against the FDA Center for Drug Regulation and Research on May 11, after the drugmakers complained against the delay in the approval of their applications 鈥渇iled as far back as 2014.鈥�
