The FDA governs the approval for the marketing of antifungals and new drugs for human use. The antibiotics and antifungals are approved under New Drug and Antibiotic Regulations, 1985. FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) evaluates new drugs before they can enter the market.
The drug has to undergo laboratory and animal tests before entering human trials. The proven benefits of the drug must be more than its potential risks. A company seeking drug approval for a prescription pharmaceutical typically undergoes a five-step process, which includes drug discovery & concept, preclinical research phase, clinical research or clinical trials, FDA review process, and postmarketing monitoring of safety.
Accelerated approvals are also given by FDA depending on the unmet medical needs and data. For generic drugs, an Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) has to be filed after the expiry of the patent. They do not have to go through the phases of clinical trials again, however, the company has to prove the bioequivalence of the product.
