hydrochloride suppository product that
is not the subject of an approved NDA
will then be unlawful.
We note that under enforcement
policies regarding drugs marketed
without required applications described
in the agency’s guidance entitled
Marketed Unapproved Drugs—
Compliance Policy Guide, it is a high
priority for the agency to take
enforcement action against those
unapproved drug products that lack
evidence of effectiveness. Firms should
be aware that we intend to take
enforcement action without further
notice against any firm that
manufactures or ships in interstate
commerce any unapproved product
covered by this notice after May 9, 2007.
Firms that discontinue or have already
discontinued manufacturing products
covered by this notice may want to
notify us that they are no longer
manufacturing those products. A firm
that wishes to notify us of product
discontinuation should send a letter,
signed by the firm’s chief executive
officer, fully identifying the
discontinued product, including its
National Drug Code (NDC) number. The
firm should send the letter to the
Division of New Drugs and Labeling
Compliance, New Drugs and Labeling
Team (see ADDRESSES). Firms should
also update the listing of their products
under section 510(j) of the act (21 U.S.C.
360(j)) to reflect discontinuation of
unapproved or otherwise discontinued
products. We plan to rely on our
existing records, the results of a
subsequent inspection, or other
available information when we evaluate
whether to take enforcement action.
