Короткий зміст

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the regulations for internal analgesic, antipyretic, and antirheumatic drug products for over-the-counter (OTC) use to correct inadvertent errors and to clarify the labeling for over-the-counter drug products written for health professionals. EFFECTIVE DATE: The regulation is effective October 25, 1999. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ida I. Yoder, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (HFD-560), Food and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301-827-2222. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA has discovered that inadvertent errors were incorporated into the agency's regulations for internal analgesic, antipyretic, and antirheumatic drug products (21 CFR part 343), that published on October 23, 1998 (63 FR 56802). This document corrects those errors and clarifies the labeling for over-the-counter drug products written for health professionals. Publication of this document constitutes final action under the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). FDA has determined that notice and public comment are unnecessary because this amendment is nonsubstantive.
