I always have to remind myself what's involved in getting a drug to market. This eSSORTMENT article is short, sweet, and a great overview of the process, "The FDA drug approval process - The FDA has an elaborate clinical process that examines new drugs for distribution to the public with its seal of approval." I've seen it stated in some other places I've read, that it can take about 15 years to 'birth' a new drug.
