The drug has received approval for NASH in India and studies are ongoing. The is one of the Ppar drugs in the sme family that several other firms are testing. Hopeful signs but not ready to apply to the FDA

Why doesn't the FDA approves this faster? When its been approved to use in another country. So many lives can be saved with this.
