Over-prescribing antibiotics is why they're becoming less and less effective, because the bugs are evolving. I don't know about this area, but new drugs for diseases can take 20 years to get approval from the FDA, which is why there are so few drugs in the pipeline. Anyway, the government should speed up the process, but you know what the civil service is like.
