ACTION: 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. DATES: Fax written comments on the collection of information by June 25, 2012. ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on the information collection are received, SUMMARY: Guidance for Industry on Postmarketing Adverse Event Reporting for Nonprescription Human Drug Products Marketed Without an Approved Application (OMB Control Number 0910–0636)— Extension. Respondents to this collection of information are manufacturers, packers, and distributors whose name (under section 502(b)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act)) appears on the label of a nonprescription drug marketed in the United States. FDA is requesting public comment on estimates of annual submissions from these respondents, as required by Public Law 109–462 and described in the guidance. This guidance document discusses what should be included in a serious adverse drug event report submitted under section 760(b)(1) of the FD&C Act, including follow-up reports under 760(c)(2) of the FD&C Act, and how to submit these reports. The estimates for annual reporting burden and recordkeeping are based on FDA’s knowledge of adverse drug experience reports historically submitted per year 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 experience, we estimate between 10,000 and 15,000 (i.e., 12,500) total annual responses for nonprescription drugs marketed without an approved application. In the Federal Register of December 27, 2011 (76 FR 80946), FDA published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed collection of information. FDA received no comments on the information collection. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN 1 Number of respondents Number of responses per respondent Average burden per response Total annual responses Total hours Reports of serious adverse drug events (21 U.S.C. 379aa((b) and (c)) ............................................................ 50 250 12,500 2 25,000 Total .............................................................................. ........................ ........................ ........................ ........................ 25,000 srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. Section 760(e) of the FD&C Act also requires that responsible persons maintain records of nonprescription adverse event reports, whether or not the event is serious, for a period of 6 years. The guidance 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 VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:31 May 23, 2012 Jkt 226001 reports. Although the guidance does not provide recommendations on recordkeeping activities generally under section 760(e) of the FD&C Act, FDA is providing an estimate for the burden of this collection. Historically, serious adverse event reports comprise approximately two-thirds and nonserious adverse event reports comprise approximately one-third of the PO 00000 Frm 00032 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 total number of postmarketing adverse event reports associated with drugs and biologic therapeutics (except vaccines) received by FDA. Based on this generalization, FDA estimates the total annual records to be approximately 20,000 records per year. FDA estimates that it takes 5 hours to maintain each record and the recordkeeping burden as follows: E:\FR\FM\24MYN1.SGM 24MYN1 31025 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 101 / Thursday, May 24, 2012 / Notices TABLE 2—ESTIMATED ANNUAL RECORDKEEPING BURDEN 1 Number of recordkeepers Number of records per recordkeeper Total annual records Average burden per recordkeeping Total hours Recordkeeping (21 U.S.C. 379aa(e)(1)) .............................. 200 100 20,000 5 100,000 Total .............................................................................. ........................ ........................ ........................ ........................ 100,000 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

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 (OMB 
Control Number 0910-0636)--Extension.
    Respondents to this collection of information are manufacturers, 
packers, and distributors whose name (under section 502(b)(1) of the 
Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the FD&C Act)) appears on the 
label of a nonprescription drug marketed in the United States.
    FDA is requesting public comment on estimates of annual submissions 
from these respondents, as required by Public Law 109-462 and described 
in the guidance. This guidance document discusses what should be 
included in a serious adverse drug event report submitted under section 
760(b)(1) of the FD&C Act, including follow-up reports under 760(c)(2) 
of the FD&C Act, and how to submit these reports. The estimates for 
annual reporting burden and recordkeeping are based on FDA's knowledge 
of adverse drug experience reports historically submitted per year 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 experience, we estimate between 10,000 and 
15,000 (i.e., 12,500) total annual responses for nonprescription drugs 
marketed without an approved application.
    In the Federal Register of December 27, 2011 (76 FR 80946), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the proposed 
collection of information. FDA received no comments on the information 
collection.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:

  information.

    Section 760(e) of the FD&C Act also requires that responsible 
persons maintain records of nonprescription adverse event reports, 
whether or not the event is serious, for a period of 6 years. The 
guidance 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 does 
not provide recommendations on recordkeeping activities generally under 
section 760(e) of the FD&C Act, FDA is providing an estimate for the 
burden of this collection. Historically, serious adverse event reports 
comprise approximately two-thirds and nonserious adverse event reports 
comprise approximately one-third of the total number of postmarketing 
adverse event reports associated with drugs and biologic therapeutics 
(except vaccines) received by FDA. Based on this generalization, FDA 
estimates the total annual records to be approximately 20,000 records 
per year. FDA estimates that it takes 5 hours to maintain each record 
and the recordkeeping burden as follows:
