Availability
AGENCY:
Food and Drug Administration,
HHS.
ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing the
availability of a guidance for industry
entitled ‘‘Testing of Glycerin for
Diethylene Glycol.’’ This guidance
provides recommendations on testing
that will help pharmaceutical
manufacturers, repackers, and other
suppliers of glycerin, and pharmacists
who engage in drug compounding,
avoid the use of glycerin that is
contaminated with diethylene glycol
(DEG) and prevent incidents of DEG
poisoning.
DATES: Submit written or electronic
comments on the guidance by July 31,
2007. General comments on agency

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
FDA is announcing the availability of
a guidance for industry entitled
‘‘Testing of Glycerin for Diethylene
Glycol.’’ This guidance explains that the
agency recommends that certain
analytical testing procedures be
performed on glycerin to avoid the use
of DEG-contaminated product.
Specifically, the agency is
recommending that all lots of glycerin
received by a pharmaceutical
manufacturing facility undergo identity
testing that includes a test for DEG
content. DEG contamination of glycerin
can be detected by using specific
analytical test procedures described in
the United States Pharmacopeia
monograph for glycerin, which
quantifies the amount of DEG present at
a detection level of 0.1 percent, as
recommended by the interagency
Diethylene Glycol Contamination
Prevention Workshop of 1997.
Repackers, pharmacy compounders, and
others who distribute and prepare
glycerin for use in drug products should
test glycerin that is used, sold for use,
or intended for use in drug products.
This recommendation also applies to
bulk or repackaged glycerin intended as
an excipient or other component for a
drug. In addition, pharmacies that
purchase glycerin for use in
compounding drug products should
either test the glycerin or ensure that
such testing was properly done by a
reliable supplier.
