His departure is a potential blow to the health care industry. <strong>Dr.Scott Gottleib<\/strong> \u2013 a physician, a medical policy expert, and public health advocate was sworn in as the<strong> 23<\/strong><sup><strong>rd<\/strong><\/sup><strong> Commissioner<\/strong> of FDA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-very-light-gray-background-color\">He became the commissioner at a critical time when healthcare was too scared and slow to adopt new changes, new technologies. The agency was worried about the hike in prices of pharmaceuticals, questionings on prescription for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.delveinsight.com\/report-store\/opioid-receptor-agonist-pipeline-insight\">opioids<\/a><\/strong> and youth addiction to electronic cigarettes. These concerns increased the urgency of its mission to improve the downgrading Pharma sector.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-very-light-gray-background-color\">Although the<strong> FDA<\/strong> cannot control the prices of drugs still Gottlieb used his position as Chief to limit the competition and deciding which drug will make it to the market. Being a cancer-survivor he worked to restrain the youth from getting addicted to nicotine. The restrictions on menthol cigarettes, flavored cigars, and flavored\u00a0e-cigarettes to anyone under 21 were imposed during his tenure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-very-light-gray-background-color\">In his two years, the <strong>FDA<\/strong> was able to publish a list of branded drugs with no generic competition. It was also successful in pinpointing the copycat drug makers. Gottlieb focused on modernizing the health care sector. Through a digital health software program-    <strong>Pre-Cert<\/strong>, he paved way for tech companies like <strong>Apple<\/strong> and <strong>SAMSUNG<\/strong> to establish their low-risk health products. Recently, Apple got clearance to launch an <strong>electrocardiogram app<\/strong> and sensor on its Apple Watch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background has-very-light-gray-background-color\">The news of his resignation affected the shares of small biotech companies like<strong> SPRD <\/strong>and <strong>S&amp;P biotech exchange<\/strong>. But the giants like <strong>Johnson and Johnson<\/strong> and <strong>Pfize<\/strong>r were unmoved. Shares of large tobacco industries like <strong>Altria<\/strong> spiked briefly as well. This news might be beneficial to the Tobacco industry if the bans imposed are removed by the FDA in near future. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US Food and Drug Administration Chief Scott Gottlieb decided to tender his resignation which took everyone by surprise.
