Not flaming or anything like that, but was the approval process for this started under the Obama admin or Trump?

I hate to tell you, brah, but it was probably Clinton. It takes a loooonnnnnnggggg (I know, TWSS) time for this process to work itself through.

I used to sue pharmaceutical companies - on the one hand, I get it that it takes a lot of time and money to get a drug or medical device through the process with the FDA. On the other hand, they seem disinterested in making anything other than billion dollar drugs - and they'll do whatever to whomever to get there.

And cutting out cheap, inexpensive alternatives is a big part of their business model.
