Generic drugmakers are feeling a little taken advantage of. They produce 80% of the drugs used in the U.S. Their products are saving federal health programs billions of dollars, and they are now helping cover some of the FDA budget through user fees. But it took the FDA two years to fill the top position at the Office of Generic Drugs (OGD), and then after 8 months the new director, Dr. Gregory Geba, is calling it quits. His resignation today comes as about half the OGD staff is being reassigned to a new office overseeing quality.
