In the United States, through the NDA review process, pharmaceutical companies that seek FDA approval for new dmg products are assessed user fees by FDA to gain faster approval, by virtue of the U.S. Prescription Dmg User Fee Act of 1992. These assessments are used to increase the new dmg review staff of the FDA, which has agreed to reduce the NDA review time to 12 months by 1997 (6). 

Remember as you set priorities that you and your team must consider the expected benefit to the company, division, or unit as a whole, rather than simply addressing a single gap. Obviously, any specific immediate risk you identify in the course of your assessment must be dealt with quickly and responsibly however, be careful not to let anomalous findings skew your perspective on broader priorities. For example, the absence of a capital project review process is a significant gap. However, if there is only one project per year this gap may have lower priority than an existing but seriously deficient operator training program. 

The status indicates where the chemical is in the review process and includes Draft, Proposed, Interim, and Final. For more information, see the United State Environmental Protection Agency website at http //www.epa.gov/oppt/aegl/ index.htm. 

Each PreTest Self-Assessment and Review allows medical students to comprehensively and conveniently assess and review their knowledge of a particular basic science—in this instance, pharmacology. The 490 questions parallel the format and degree of difficulty of the questions found in the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1. Practicing physicians who want to hone their skills before USMLE Step 3 or recertification may find this to be a good beginning in their review process. 

A new excipient can only be approved for use within the review process for a new drug application (NDA) under the current system of drug product approval in the United States. There is no separate approval procedure for a new excipient that is to be used in drug products. This approval process is also applicable in the EU and other countries of the world. In this chapter, it is argued that the approval... 

Bioavailability can be influenced directly or indirectly by many physiological, pathological, chemical, nutritional, and processing conditions. Discussion in this chapter will be limited to unit food processing effects upon the bioavailability of nutrients from plant protein foods. The bioavailability of amino acids, carbohydrates, lipids, vitamins and minerals from processed foods will be selectively reviewed. Amino Acids... 

Recent review articles (, 104-109) have described general factors that affect mineral utilization from foods. General factors such as the digestibility of the food that supplies the mineral, chemical form of the element, dietary levels of other nutrients, presence of mineral chelators, particle size of the food or supplemented minerals and food processing conditions all play a role in the ultimate mineral bioavailability (104). Many unit food processing operations can be shown to directly or indirectly alter the level or chemical form of minerals or the association of minerals with other food components. 

Upon completion of preclinical, clinical, and dmg product development, the dmg company submits to the FDA for approval an NDA containing a meticulous, well-indexed, comprehensive, and readable document. The document should satisfy the requirements of the Food, Dmg, and Cosmetic Act and the code of Federal Regulations (CFR) used by the FDA in the review and approval of safe and effective dmg products in the United States. The FDA s NDA review process may last approximately two years. Multiple review teams are involved in the review process including ... 

In some instances where identical or almost similar pieces of equipment exist at a facility the outcome of the first may be generally copied or reviewed against the second item. This aids the review process for both units and speeds the review on the second unit. 

The abbreviated medicines review process (AMRP) is a system initiated by Council to speed the evaluation process of products registered within two years of their approval by one of the FDA (United States), MCA (United Kingdom), MPA (Sweden), CPMP (Europe), CDD (Canada) or TGA (Australia), where the complete evaluation report of the authority is not readily available. The data must be complete and identical to that submitted to cmd approved by the relevant authority, except that the raw data of experimental and clinical studies must be excluded. The abbreviated process is then based on the expert reports, the pharmacotoxicological and clinical data. Written confirmation that the formulation applied for is identical to that approved by the registering authority and all the relevant... 

Special Features Quality Management. The award criteria provide a similar but more comprehensive system than ISO 9000 series. The Baldrige application and review process is considered the leading audit of corporate quality and health, inside and outside the United States. 

Since the early 1980s, there has been a more than fivefold increase in the number of Americans enrolled in HMOs, which has had a dramatic impact on the delivery of healthcare in the United States. As a result of this trend, HMOs realized the need to demonstrate the quality of care they provided to their members compared with fee-for-service health plans however, at the time the industry lacked established standards. Subsequently, various independent review processes evolved, which often did not have consistent assumptions about the parameters that defined quality. It was not until the late 1980s that a group of HMO industry leaders recognized that an organization called the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) had the potential to act as an independent authority on quality control in managed care. ...
