SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA
has submitted the following proposed
collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
Guidance for Industry on
Postmarketing Adverse Event Reporting
for Nonprescription Human Drug
Products Marketed Without an
Approved Application
Public Law 109–462, the Dietary
Supplement and Nonprescription Drug
Consumer Protection Act, amended the
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
(the act) to add safety reporting
requirements for nonprescription drug
products that are marketed without an
approved application. In accordance
with section 760(b) of the act (21 U.S.C.
379aa), the manufacturer, packer, or
distributor whose name appears on the
label of a nonprescription drug
marketed in the United States without
an approved application (referred to as
the responsible person) must submit to
FDA any report of a serious adverse
event associated with such drug when
used in the United States, accompanied
by a copy of the label on or within the
retail package of such drug. In addition,
the responsible person must submit
followup reports of new medical
information related to a submitted
serious adverse event report that is
received within 1 year of the initial
report (section 760(c)(2) of the act).
Section 760(e) of the act also requires
that responsible persons maintain
records of nonprescription drug adverse
event reports, whether or not the event

is serious, for a period of 6 years. The
guidance document provides
information on: (1) The minimum data
elements that should be included in a
serious adverse event report, (2) the
label that should be included with the
report, (3) reporting formats for paper
and electronic submissions, and (4) how
and where to submit the reports.
Title: Guidance for Industry on
Postmarketing Adverse Event Reporting
for Nonprescription Human Drug
Products Marketed Without an
Approved Application.
Description of Respondents:
Respondents to this collection of
information are manufacturers, packers,
or distributors whose name appears on
the label of a nonprescription drug
marketed in the United States without
an approved application.
Burden Estimate: FDA is requesting
public comment on estimates of the
number of annual submissions from
these respondents and recordkeeping, as
required by Public Law 109–462 and
described in the guidance
‘‘Postmarketing Adverse Event
Reporting for Nonprescription Human
Drug Products Marketed Without an
Approved Application.’’ The estimates
for annual reporting and recordkeeping
are based on FDA’s knowledge of
adverse drug experience reports
historically submitted annually for
prescription drug products and for
nonprescription drug products marketed
under an approved application,
including knowledge about the time
needed to prepare the reports and to
maintain records.
FDA receives approximately 2,500
serious adverse event reports for
nonprescription drug products marketed
under approved applications, which
comprise approximately 20 percent of
the overall nonprescription drug market.
Based on this data, we estimate between
10,000 and 15,000 (i.e., 12,500) total
annual responses from approximately
50 respondents for nonprescription
drugs marketed without an approved
application, and that each submission
will take approximately 2 hours to
prepare and submit to FDA.
In the Federal Register of October 15,
2007 (72 FR 58316), FDA published a
60-day notice requesting public
comment on the information collection
provisions. No comments were received
on the information collection.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:

are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.
The guidance also recommends that
responsible persons maintain records of
efforts to obtain the minimum data
elements for a report of a serious
adverse drug event and any followup
reports. Although the guidance
document does not provide
recommendations on all the
recordkeeping activities required under
section 760(e) of the act, we are
providing an estimate for this burden.
Historically, serious adverse event
reports comprise approximately twothirds, and nonserious adverse event
reports comprise approximately onethird, of the total number of
postmarketing adverse event reports
associated with drugs and biologic
therapeutics (except vaccines) received
by FDA. Based on this generalization,
we estimate the total annual records to
be approximately 20,000 records per
year, and the number of respondents to
be approximately 200. We also estimate
that it takes approximately 5 hours to
maintain each record.
