Summary

The FAIR Act lets the FDA grant marketing approval to medicines that are already authorized by trusted foreign regulators when they treat an immediately life‑threatening condition. Sponsors submit a request and, if the criteria are met, the agency must decide within 30 days. The goal is to give U.S. patients quicker access to innovative therapies while maintaining safety oversight.
