FDA Orange Book - New!

FDA Orange Book

Recently posted on FDA.gov:
The FDA's Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations - PDF

According to this "Orange Book" (aka "the List"):

"The products in this list have been approved under section 505 of the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. This volume is current through
December 31, 2014.

The publication, Approved Drug Products with Therapeutic Equivalence
Evaluations (the List, commonly known as the Orange Book), identifies drug
products approved on the basis of safety and effectiveness by the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the
Act). Drugs on the market approved only on the basis of safety (covered by
the ongoing Drug Efficacy Study Implementation [DESI] review [e.g., Donnatal®
Tablets and Librax® Capsules] or pre-1938 drugs [e.g., Phenobarbital
Tablets]) are not included in this publication. The main criterion for the
inclusion of any product is that the product is the subject of an application
with an effective approval that has not been withdrawn for safety or efficacy
reasons. Inclusion of products on the List is independent of any current
regulatory action through administrative or judicial means against a drug
product. In addition, the List contains therapeutic equivalence evaluations
for approved multisource prescription drug products. These evaluations have
been prepared to serve as public information and advice to state health
agencies, prescribers, and pharmacists to promote public education in the
area of drug product selection and to foster containment of health care
costs. Therapeutic equivalence evaluations in this publication are not
official FDA actions affecting the legal status of products under the Act. "
