Bulk Drug Substances That Can Be Used To Compound Drug Products in Accordance With Section 503A of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act; Establishment of a Public Docket

Résumé

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is developing a list of bulk drug substances (active ingredients) that can be used to compound drug products in accordance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act), although they are neither the subject of an applicable United States Pharmacopeia (USP) or National Formulary (NF) monograph nor components of FDA-approved drugs (503A bulks list). The Agency previously solicited nominations for the list, but some of the nominated substances were not supported by sufficient information for FDA to evaluate them. FDA is establishing a public docket where these substances can be renominated with sufficient supporting information or to receive nominations of bulk drug substances that were not previously nominated for consideration for inclusion on the 503A bulks list. Interested parties can also submit comments on nominated substances via this docket.
