SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES FDA is announcing the availability of a new guidance for small business entities entitled ‘‘Organ-Specific Warnings: Internal Analgesic, Antipyretic, and Antirheumatic Drug Products for Over-the-Counter Human Use—Small Entity Compliance Guide.’’ This small entity compliance guide applies to over-the-counter (OTC) internal analgesic, antipyretic, and antirheumatic (IAAA) drug products that contain acetaminophen or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug ingredients (NSAIDs). The labeling of those products must include specific warnings about the risks of liver injury when using acetaminophen, and stomach bleeding when using nonsteroidal NSAIDs, as well as related information appearing on the principal display panel. Manufacturers must be in compliance with the rule beginning on April 29, 2010. This guidance is being issued consistent with FDA’s good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The guidance represents the agency’s current thinking on organ-specific labeling requirements for OTC IAAA drug products. It does not create or confer any rights for or on any person and does not operate to bind FDA or the public. An alternative approach may be used if such approach satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations. II.
