Guidance for Industry: Guidance on the Labeling of Certain Uses of Lecithin Derived From Soy Under Section 403(w) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act; Withdrawal of Guidance

Résumé

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is announcing the withdrawal of a guidance entitled "Guidance for Industry: Guidance on the Labeling of Certain Uses of Lecithin Derived From Soy Under Section 403(w) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act," dated April 2006, that was announced in the Federal Register on May 2, 2006. The guidance explained FDA's then current thinking on the labeling of certain uses of lecithin derived from soy under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act) and was part of FDA's implementation of the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA). We are taking this action because the policy stated in the guidance regarding FDA's consideration of the exercise of enforcement discretion no longer reflects our current thinking.
