Download as PDF 81618 Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 248 / Tuesday, December 28, 2010 / Notices TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 mg and 400 mg, were not withdrawn for reasons of safety or effectiveness. The petitioner has identified no data or other information suggesting that TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 mg and 400 mg, were withdrawn for reasons of safety or effectiveness. We have carefully reviewed our files for records concerning the withdrawal of TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 mg and 400 mg, from sale. We have also independently evaluated relevant literature and data for possible postmarketing adverse events and have found no information that would indicate that this product was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. Accordingly, the Agency will continue to list TRANDATE (labetalol hydrochloride) tablets, 300 mg and 400 mg, in the ‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’ section of the Orange Book. The ‘‘Discontinued Drug Product List’’ delineates, among other items, drug products that have been discontinued from marketing for reasons other than safety or effectiveness. FDA will not begin procedures to withdraw approval of approved ANDAs that refer to the TRANDATE products listed in this document. Additional ANDAs that refer to these products may also be approved by the Agency as long as they meet all other legal and regulatory requirements for the approval of ANDAs. If FDA determines that labeling for this drug product should be revised to meet current standards, the Agency will advise ANDA applicants to submit such labeling. Dated: December 21, 2010.
