    Limitations
    This claim records the original approval and the fields the records give. The records fetched carry no indication text for the original approval, so the claim does not say what the medicine was approved to treat then. The openFDA record also lists later submissions, mostly supplements, and the fetched records do not say which of them changed the approved uses, including for heart failure. Current labelling was not read. An approval is not a finding about how well the medicine works. openFDA's own disclaimer says not to rely on it for decisions about medical care.

Basis
The US Food and Drug Administration approved New Drug Application NDA207620 for ENTRESTO (sacubitril and valsartan) tablets on 7 July 2015. The openFDA record lists the original approval as submission ORIG-1, classified as a new molecular entity (Type 1) and a new combination (Type 4), with priority review. The openFDA record names NOVARTIS PHARMS CORP as the sponsor of the application.

Limitations. This claim records the original approval and the fields the records give. The records fetched carry no indication text for the original approval, so the claim does not say what the medicine was approved to treat then. The openFDA record also lists later submissions, mostly supplements, and the fetched records do not say which of them changed the approved uses, including for heart failure. Current labelling was not read. An approval is not a finding about how well the medicine works. openFDA's own disclaimer says not to rely on it for decisions about medical care.

A regulatory decision is separate from a guideline recommendation and from payment coverage.
