Clura’s Chrome extension includes an FDA Drug Approvals Scraper template that extracts structured approval data from the currently open drug approval listing and search result pages on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration website.
This template is built for biotech analysts, pharma companies, investors, researchers, and healthcare data teams who monitor new drug approvals, regulatory decisions, and therapeutic trends. After you navigate to an FDA drug approvals page (such as CDER new drug approvals by year or search results filtered by drug name, sponsor, or approval date), the scraper reads the approval table or listing cards displayed on the page.
You can review and customize which fields are extracted, confirm pagination if approvals span multiple pages, and add additional custom fields if required. Once run, the scraper collects approval data across pages, saves everything to your Clura account, and allows export as CSV or JSON for pipeline tracking, competitive intelligence, or research.
