Part 203—(OMB Control Number 0910–

FDA is requesting OMB approval
under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520)
for the reporting and recordkeeping
requirements contained in the
regulations implementing the
Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987
(PDMA) (Pub. L. 100–293). PDMA was
intended to ensure that drug products
purchased by consumers are safe and
effective and to avoid an unacceptable
risk that counterfeit, adulterated,
Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing
that a proposed collection of
information has been submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and clearance under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(the PRA).
DATES: Fax written comments on the
collection of information by October 31,
2011.
ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on
the information collection are received,
SUMMARY:
60501
misbranded, subpotent, or expired drugs
are sold.
PDMA was enacted by Congress
because there were insufficient
safeguards in the drug distribution
system to prevent the introduction and
retail sale of substandard, ineffective, or
counterfeit drugs, and that a wholesale
drug diversion submarket had
developed that prevented effective
control over the true sources of drugs.
Congress found that large amounts of
drugs had been reimported into the
United States as U.S. goods returned
causing a health and safety risk to U.S.
consumers because the drugs may
become subpotent or adulterated during
foreign handling and shipping. Congress
also found that a ready market for
prescription drug reimports had been
the catalyst for a continuing series of
frauds against U.S. manufacturers and
had provided the cover for the
importation of foreign counterfeit drugs.
Congress also determined that the
system of providing drug samples to
physicians through manufacturers’
representatives had resulted in the sale
to consumers of misbranded, expired,
and adulterated pharmaceuticals.
The bulk resale of below-wholesale
priced prescription drugs by health care
entities for ultimate sale at retail also
helped to fuel the diversion market and
was an unfair form of competition to
wholesalers and retailers who had to
pay otherwise prevailing market prices.
FDA is requesting OMB approval for

when reimported by the manufacturer
or under FDA authorization for
emergency medical care; (2) to ban the
sale, purchase, or trade, or the offer to
sell, purchase, or trade, of any
prescription drug sample; (3) to limit
the distribution of drug samples to
practitioners licensed or authorized to
prescribe such drugs or to pharmacies of
hospitals or other health care entities at
the request of a licensed or authorized
practitioner; (4) to require licensed or
authorized practitioners to request
prescription drug samples in writing;
(5) to mandate storage, handling, and
recordkeeping requirements for
prescription drug samples; (6) to
prohibit, with certain exceptions, the
sale, purchase, or trade of, or the offer
to sell, purchase, or trade, prescription
drugs that were purchased by hospitals
or other health care entities, or which
were donated or supplied at a reduced
price to a charitable organization; (7) to
require unauthorized wholesale
distributors to provide, prior to the
wholesale distribution of a prescription
drug to another wholesale distributor or
retail pharmacy, a statement identifying
each prior sale, purchase, or trade of the
drug.
In the Federal Register of June 6, 2011
(76 FR 32362), FDA published a 60-day
notice requesting public comment on
the proposed collection of information.
We received one comment. The
comment did not pertain to the
information collection discussed in the
June 2011 Federal Register notice, but
commended the use of electronic and
automated health information solutions
to reduce costs and improve health care
efficiency.

review and clearance.
Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987; Administrative Procedures,
Policies, and Requirements--21 CFR Part 203--(OMB Control Number 0910-

FDA is requesting OMB approval under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520)
for the reporting and recordkeeping requirements contained in the
regulations implementing the Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987
(PDMA) (Pub. L. 100-293). PDMA was intended to ensure that drug
products purchased by consumers are safe and effective and to avoid an
unacceptable risk that counterfeit, adulterated, misbranded, subpotent,
or expired drugs are sold.
PDMA was enacted by Congress because there were insufficient
safeguards in the drug distribution system to prevent the introduction
and retail sale of substandard, ineffective, or counterfeit drugs, and
that a wholesale drug diversion submarket had developed that prevented
effective control over the true sources of drugs.
Congress found that large amounts of drugs had been reimported into
the United States as U.S. goods returned causing a health and safety
risk to U.S. consumers because the drugs may become subpotent or

Congress also determined that the system of providing drug samples

The bulk resale of below-wholesale priced prescription drugs by

pertain to the information collection discussed in the June 2011
Federal Register notice, but commended the use of electronic and
automated health information solutions to reduce costs and improve
health care efficiency.
FDA Response: There were no issues raised in the comment to be
