NOTE: Numbers reflect current data at the time of posting and may change based on refreshed counts in our tracking systems, including application status updates.
These numbers are not intended for Congressional reporting purposes.

* = This data requires additional verification and will be posted when available.

+ = ANDA Original Receipts are reported as raw receipts (versus filed receipts).
++ = PAS Supplements do not include REMS PAS supplements.
+++ = Controls count only those requests deemed appropriate for a control.
