Thanks for the feedback. One wonders sometimes if the FDA is the gateway or the roadblock to quality healthcare when it comes to our drug and medical device supply. Logic too often seems to be bogged down by their dogged "non passerent" (THEY SHALL NOT PASS) attitude. Sometimes it is necessary to take limited but yet controllable risk to achieve an objective, especially when there are no alternatives.

I think they have milked the Thalidamide story (how many decades old) for about as far as it will go and should start taking a proactive course toward reducing the inane cost and time to bring new lifesaving medical developments to market.

Maybe it is time that Congress started conducting oversight hearings to find out why the FDA has ignored, or at best, paid only lip service to some FDA reform legislation passed years ago. I'll step down off of my soap box now.

Thanks again.
