2020 First Generic Drug Approvals

Each year, FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) approves a wide range of new drug products. FDA provides the scientific and regulatory advice needed to bring safe, effective, high-quality generic alternatives to market, which in turn creates more affordable treatment options for patients.

“First generics” are just what they sound like—the first approval by FDA which permits a manufacturer to market a generic drug product in the United States. FDA considers first generics to be important to public health, and prioritizes review of these submissions.

Note: Approved drugs are not always available on or after the listed approval date. Please contact the listed ANDA applicant for more information about a drug product’s availability.
