I was looking for Weezul's post but you beat me to the punch again. It is not easy to revive a discontinued drug and it would be odd for a company to discontinue a drug and then file to revive a discontinues drug they intend to launch in less than 6 months, the Elite contract expiration date being March 31,2023. You are indeed The King.
You can decide to trust input from an anonymous user posts over fda websites, or you can read and interpret actual FDA documentation. I made it easy by posting a link below. From my read of it the process is not substantial, costly, or time-consuming'. It does mention the possibility of needing to submit a form as much as 2 months prior though (not very much of a delay given they plan to start marketing in Mar).
In my opinion it makes zero sense for a company to have to repeat costly tests just because they chose not to market a drug. Between the FDA documentation and common sense I choose to conclude that WeeZuhl is mistaken in his opinion.
