  • FDA Listing of Authorized Generics As of July 1, 2021
    FDA Listing of Authorized Generics as of July 1, 2021 Note: This list of authorized generic drugs (AGs) was created from a manual review of FDA’s database of annual reports submitted to the FDA since January 1, 1999 by sponsors of new drug applications (NDAs). Because the annual reports seldom indicate the date an AG initially entered the market, the column headed “Date Authorized Generic Entered Market” reflects the period covered by the annual report in which the AG was first reported. Subsequent marketing dates by the same firm or other firms are not included in this listing. As noted, in many cases FDA does not have information on whether the AG is still marketed and, if not still marketed, the date marketing ceased. Although attempts have been made to ensure that this list is as accurate as possible, given the volume of d ata reviewed and the possibility of database limitations or errors, users of this list are cautioned to independently verify the information on the list. We welcome comments on and suggested changes (e.g., additions and deletions) to the list, but the list may include only information that is included in an annual report. Please send suggested changes to the list, along with any supporting documentation to: [email protected] A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V X Y Z NDA Applicant Date Authorized Generic Proprietary Name Dosage Form Strength Name Entered the Market 1 ACANYA Gel 1.2% / 2.5% Bausch Health 07/2018 Americas, Inc.

This grant will be awarded for creation of VTE in Cancer learnings and tools to be used as part of a comprehensive initiative to address the educational gaps among HCPs in providing care to VTE patients with cancer. The successful proposal will have: Clear and concise statement of the goal, learning objectives, and expected outcomes of the educational initiative Learning plan that incorporates innovative techniques designed to engage learners, promotes application of education into practice, and incorporates the patient voice into educational resources Tools that provide HCP learners the opportunity to facilitate change to improve patient outcomes Measurement of outcomes, inclusive of learner progression throughout the activity, extent to which the activity closed the identified practice gaps, and patient impact Educational Design Bristol-Myers Squibb/Pfizer Alliance is interested in supporting a comprehensive educational initiative that is innovative, engaging, interactive, and that leverages current scientific evidence to improve HCP knowledge, skills, competence, and ultimately patient care. The activity(ies) should measure improvement of learners’ knowledge, confidence, competence, and performance and should achieve at least a Moore’s Level 4 impact.
