Following our review of each new therapeutic agent marketed in 2020, we compare the new drug with the older medication(s) with which it is most similar in properties and uses, and we identify advantages and disadvantages. Advantages and disadvantages are identified at the time the new drug is first marketed and do not reflect approval of additional new drugs and/or changes that occur after the drug is initially marketed.
