I retired from the US FDA Center of New Drugs, Division of Anti-Infective Products as Chemistry Team Leader in 2002. My 12 years with FDA was the happiest and my most productive years in my professional life. My Memories of my work with FDA is now fully documented via a hard bound book published by StoryWorth. I titled it, Becoming Americans, Life Memories of David B & Macrine J, the Intellectual Migrants. My interest in new drugs still remains active even after 19 years of retirement.
In
this article I am posting references for new drugs approved by FDA from
2008 to September 2021. There are few interesting new drugs for cancer
and other rare diseases in the list. Feel free to browse the list. Some
of the drug names are hard to pronounce and some of the diseases
mentioned I have never heard before. But I found the list informative
and educational. In this article I am also posting the reference for
the List of FDA Essential Medicines as mandated by the Recent Executive
Order #13944 from the White House dated August 6, 2020.
THE LIST CONTAINS 227 DRUGS AND BIOLOGICAL PRODUCTS AND 96 MEDICAL DEVICES WHICH INCLUDED DIAGNOSTIC TESTING KITS AND SUPPLIES.
I am also posting the reference for the three FDA approved Covid-19* vaccines as follows:

Finally
here's the reference for the List of FDA Approved Drugs from 2008 to
the Present. Enjoy reading it and educating yourself. It is ok if you
have a hard time pronouncing the names.
