Fampridine approval application
Senator Burke says a fresh application for fampridine is under consideration and urges a prompt decision so affected patients can obtain the drug.
I fully agree with the comments of Senator John Crown. My understanding, following an Adjournment debate two weeks ago, is that a new application for approval had been submitted by the drug company and it is being considered. Hopefully, the drug will be made available in the not too distant future. This is a matter of utmost importance to the people who require the drug. The sooner a decision on approval is made, the better.
