Prescription Drug User Fee Act Reports and Plans

The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) provides FDA with increasing levels of resources for the review of human drug applications. Fees that FDA collected from drug and biologics firms from 1993 to 2002 were used to reduce the time required to evaluate certain human drug applications without compromising review quality. FDA has submitted annual Performance and Financial Reports to Congress on progress in streamlining the drug review process and use of PDUFA fees. PDUFA has been amended and extended through Sept. 30, 2007. The amended act is now referred to as PDUFA III and its predecessors as PDUFA I and PDUFA II.
