SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: MedPharmex, Inc., 2727 Thompson Creek

associated with yeast (Malassezia
pachydermatis, formerly Pityrosporum

approved as of February 27, 2006, and

In addition, FDA has noticed that a
215-gram bottle size was approved for
this product under ANADA 200–229 but
not codified. At this time, that bottle
size is being added to § 524.1044g. This
action is being taken to improve the
accuracy of the regulations.
In accordance with the freedom of
information provisions of 21 CFR part
20 and 21 CFR 514.11(e)(2)(ii), a
summary of safety and effectiveness
data and information submitted to
support approval of this application
may be seen in the Division of Dockets
Management (HFA–305), Food and Drug
Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm.
1061, Rockville, MD 20852, between 9
a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through
Friday.
The agency has determined under 21
CFR 25.33(a)(1) that this action is of a
type that does not individually or
cumulatively have a significant effect on
the human environment. Therefore,
neither an environmental assessment
nor an environmental impact statement
is required.
This rule does not meet the definition
of ‘‘rule’’ in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because
it is a rule of ‘‘particular applicability.’’
Therefore, it is not subject to the
congressional review requirements in 5
U.S.C. 801–808.
