The Campaign for Modern Medicines

Eli Lilly and Company, a large US based pharmaceutical company, has created a website at modernmedicines, which is geared to providing information related to a petition that they have created to inform Congress that The Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) needs to be "cleaned." The objective of the website and petition is “that patients deserve timely access to lifesaving medicines and that the U.S. must remain the global leader in discovering and delivering these breakthrough cures and treatments." They are asking public citizens to stand with the Campaign for Modern Medicines and urge Congress to pass PDUFA by July 4th free of extraneous additions that bring new costs and burdens to the FDA.”
