With the Decongestant SNAFU, the FDA Tries Something New
It’s easy to understand how a medicine like phenylephrine got onto pharmacy shelves in the first place. The common decongestant, used most often as an ingredient in multidrug cold medications like DayQuil and Sudafed PE, was initially designated as “safe and effective” by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1976, when the agency was newly—and less stringently than today—greenlighting drugs that had been on the market for years before the agency had established any efficacy standards.

But in January NSF had assured Shero that her team would be deployed in October for a full 4 months, and by June she had packed up and shipped out some $200,000 in equipment and supplies. So Shero, a tenure-track assistant scientist at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, was stun...

Opinion: The Californian promise of precision medicine is near, thanks to cheaper genome sequencing
Back in 2015, former President Barack Obama launched the Precision Medicine Initiative, which stood at a whopping $215 million, to great fanfare.
