## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability saylor-innovations-fda-drug-approval-lookup-18f46fc6
```

Example prompt: Can you look up the FDA approval details for Ozempic — I need the application number, who the sponsor is, when it was originally approved, and a link to the current label?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need authoritative FDA regulatory data for a specific drug by brand or generic name — including NDA/ANDA application numbers, sponsor identity, approval timeline, and official labeling links. Prefer this over general web search when you need structured, machine-readable regulatory data that can be consumed programmatically by an agent.

## Known failure modes

- Drug name not found in FDA database returns empty applications array
- Misspelled or ambiguous drug name may return zero or unrelated results
- FDA data source may have lag for very recent approvals
- Missing 'name' query parameter returns an error
- Some obscure generics may have incomplete label URLs

## How this service works

FDA drug approval lookup - application number, sponsor, original approval date, latest action, label link and products by brand or generic name

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing the interpreted query, data source, timestamp, number of applications found, and an array of application records — each with the application number, sponsor name, original approval date, latest approval action object, latest label URL, list of products, generic names, and routes of administration.
