FDA–2010–P–0172 and FDA– 2010–P–0177] Determination That AUGMENTIN ‘125’ (Amoxicillin; Clavulanate Potassium) Chewable Tablet and Six Other AUGMENTIN (Amoxicillin; Clavulanate Potassium) Drug Products Were Not Withdrawn From Sale for Reasons of Safety or Effectiveness AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS. ACTION: Notice. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that the AUGMENTIN (amoxicillin; clavulanate potassium) drug products listed in this notice were not withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination means that FDA will not begin procedures to withdraw approval of abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) that refer to these drug products, and it will allow FDA to continue to approve ANDAs that refer to the products as long as they SUMMARY: meet relevant legal and regulatory requirements.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 1984, Congress enacted the Drug Price Competition and Patent Term Restoration Act of 1984 (Pub. L. 98–417) (the 1984 amendments), which authorized the approval of duplicate versions of drug products approved under an ANDA procedure. ANDA applicants must, with certain exceptions, show that the drug for which they are seeking approval contains the same active ingredient in the same strength and dosage form as the ‘‘listed drug,’’ which is a version of the drug that was previously approved. ANDA applicants do not have to repeat the extensive clinical testing otherwise necessary to gain approval of a new drug application (NDA). The only clinical data required in an ANDA are data to show that the drug that is the subject of the ANDA is bioequivalent to the listed drug. The 1984 amendments include what is now section 505(j)(7) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C. 355(j)(7)), which requires FDA to publish a list of all approved drugs. FDA publishes this list as part of the ‘‘Approved Drug Products With Therapeutic Equivalence Evaluations,’’ which is known generally as the ‘‘Orange Book.’’ Under FDA regulations, a drug is removed from the list if the Agency withdraws or suspends approval of the drug’s NDA or ANDA for reasons of safety or effectiveness or if FDA determines that the listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness (21 CFR 314.162). Under § 314.161(a)(1) (21 CFR 314.161(a)(1)), the Agency must determine whether a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness before an ANDA that refers to that listed drug may be approved. FDA may not approve an ANDA that does not refer to a listed drug. Under § 314.161(a)(2), FDA must determine whether a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness whenever a listed drug is voluntarily withdrawn from sale and ANDAs that refer to the listed drug have been approved. Section 314.161(d) provides that if FDA determines that a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness, the Agency will initiate proceedings that could result in the withdrawal of approval of the ANDAs that refer to the listed drug. The drug products listed in table 1 of this document are no longer being marketed. Six of the products listed (AUGMENTIN ‘125’ Chewable Tablet, AUGMENTIN ‘250’ Chewable Tablet, AUGMENTIN ‘200’ Powder for Suspension, AUGMENTIN ‘400’ Powder for Suspension, AUGMENTIN ‘200’ Chewable Tablet, and AUGMENTIN ‘400’ Chewable Tablet) are indicated for the treatment of infections caused by susceptible strains of the designated organisms in the following conditions: Lower respiratory tract infections, caused by b-lactamase-producing strains of Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis; otitis media, caused by b-lactamase-producing strains of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis; sinusitis, caused by b-lactamaseproducing strains of H. influenzae and M. catarrhalis; skin and skin structure infections, caused by b-lactamaseproducing strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella spp.; and urinary tract infections, caused by b-lactamase-producing strains of E. coli, Klebsiella spp., and Enterobacter spp. AUGMENTIN ES–600 Powder for Suspension is indicated for the treatment of pediatric patients with recurrent or persistent acute otitis media due to Streptococcus pneumoniae (penicillin MICs ≤ 2 micrograms (mcg)/ mL), H. influenzae (including blactamase-producing strains), or M. catarrhalis (including b-lactamaseproducing strains) characterized by the following risk factors: antibiotic exposure for acute otitis media within the preceding 3 months, and either age ≤ 2 years or daycare attendance. emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES TABLE 1 Initial approval date Application No. Drug Applicant NDA 50–597 ..................
