Use for "what is the most recent novel drug the FDA approved", "latest FDA drug approvals", "recently approved new drugs or biologics this month/year". Returns original NDA/BLA approvals (generics excluded by default) sorted newest-first, with approval date, brand name, active ingredients, sponsor, and application number. Not for label text (fda_drug_labels) or searching a specific known drug (fda_drug_approvals).
