Industry pressure
Article Abstract:
The drug industry pressure built on the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to accelerate approval times led to the agency adopting several reforms from 1970's to early 1990's. The FDA budgetary restraints led to an introduction of industry money when Congress passed Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) in 1992.
