Current Good Manufacturing Practice
Regulations for Type A Medicated
Articles—21 CFR Part 226 (OMB
Control Number 0910–0154)—Extension
Under section 501 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the
FD&C Act), FDA has the statutory
authority to issue current good
manufacturing practice (cGMP)
regulations for drugs, including Type A
medicated articles. A Type A medicated
article is a feed product containing a
concentrated drug diluted with a feed
carrier substance. A Type A medicated
article is intended solely for use in the
manufacture of another Type A
medicated article or a Type B or Type
C medicated feed. Medicated feeds are
administered to animals for the
prevention, cure, mitigation, or
treatment of disease or for growth
promotion and feed efficiency.
Statutory requirements for cGMPs for
Type A medicated articles have been
codified in part 226 (21 CFR part 226).
Type A medicated articles which are not
manufactured in accordance with these
regulations are considered adulterated
under section 501(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C
Act (21 U.S.C. 351(a)(2)(B). Under part
226, a manufacturer is required to
establish, maintain, and retain records
for Type A medicated articles, including
records to document procedures
required under the manufacturing
process to assure that proper quality
control is maintained. Such records
would, for example, contain information
concerning receipt and inventory of
drug components, batch production,
laboratory assay results (i.e., batch and
stability testing), and product
distribution.
This information is needed so that
FDA can monitor drug usage and
possible misformulation of Type A
medicated articles. The information
could also prove useful to FDA in
investigating product defects when a
drug is recalled. In addition, FDA will
use the cGMP criteria in part 226 to
determine whether or not the systems
used by manufacturers of Type A
medicated articles are adequate to
assure that their medicated articles meet
the requirements of the FD&C Act as to
safety and also meet the article’s
claimed identity, strength, quality, and
purity, as required by section
501(a)(2)(B) of the FD&C Act. The
respondents for Type A medicated
articles are pharmaceutical firms that
manufacture both human and veterinary
drugs, those firms that produce only
veterinary drugs, and commercial feed
mills.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:

information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal

including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB

With respect to the following
collection of information, FDA invites
comments on these topics: (1) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of FDA’s functions, including whether
the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques,
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
Index of Legally Marketed Unapproved
New Animal Drugs for Minor Species
21 CFR Part 516 (OMB Control Number
0910–0620)—Extension
Description: The Minor Use and
Minor Species Animal Health Act of
2004 (MUMS Act) amended the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the
FD&C Act) to authorize FDA to establish
new regulatory procedures intended to
make more medications legally available
to veterinarians and animal owners for
the treatment of minor animal species
(species other than cattle, horses, swine,
chickens, turkeys, dogs, and cats), as
well as uncommon diseases in major
animal species.
The MUMS Act created three new
sections to the FD&C Act (sections 571,
572, and 573), and this final rule
implements section 572, which provides
for an index of legally marketed
unapproved new animal drugs for minor
species. Participation in any part of the
MUMS program is optional so the
associated paperwork only applies to
those who choose to participate. The
final rule specifies, among other things,
the criteria and procedures for
requesting eligibility for indexing and
for requesting addition to the index as
well as the annual reporting
requirements for index holders.
Under subpart C of part 516, § 516.119
provides requirements for naming a
permanent resident U.S. agent by
foreign drug companies, and § 516.121
provides for informational meetings
with FDA. Section 516.123 provides
requirements for requesting informal
conferences regarding Agency
administrative actions and § 516.125
provides for investigational use of new
animal drugs intended for indexing.
Provisions for requesting a
determination of eligibility for indexing
can be found under § 516.129 and
provisions for subsequent requests for
addition to the index can be found
under § 516.145. A description of the
written report required in § 516.145 can
be found under § 516.143. Under
§ 516.141 are provisions for drug
companies to nominate a qualified
expert panel as well as the panel’s
recordkeeping requirements. This
section also calls for the submission of
a written conflict of interest statement to
FDA by each proposed panel member.
Index holders are able to modify their
index listing under § 516.161 or change
drug ownership under § 516.163.
Requirements for records and reports
are under § 516.165.
Description of Respondents:

new animal drugs. FDA estimates the

Notice.
The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing an
opportunity for public comment on the
proposed collection of certain
information by the Agency. Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the
PRA), Federal Agencies are required to
publish notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed

information, and to allow 60 days for
public comment in response to the
notice. This notice solicits comments on
a generic clearance to collect
information to support communications
used by FDA about drug products.
DATES: Submit either electronic or
written comments on the collection of
information by June 6, 2014.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the collection of
information to https://
www.regulations.gov. Submit written
comments on the collection of

SUMMARY:
Data To Support Drug Product
Communications as Used by the Food
and Drug Administration—(OMB
Control Number 0910–0695)—Extension
Testing of communication messages
in advance of a communication
campaign provides an important role in
improving FDA communications as they
allow for an in-depth understanding of
individuals’ attitudes, beliefs,
motivations, and feelings. The methods
to be employed include individual indepth interviews, general public focus
group interviews, intercept interviews,
self-administered surveys, gatekeeper
surveys, and professional clinician
focus group interviews. The methods to
be used serve the narrowly defined need
for direct and informal opinion on a
specific topic and, as a qualitative
research tool, have two major purposes:
(1) To obtain information that is
useful for developing variables and
measures for formulating the basic
objectives of risk communication
campaigns; and
(2) To assess the potential
effectiveness of messages and materials
in reaching and successfully
communicating with their intended
audiences.
FDA will use these methods to test
and refine its ideas and to help develop
messages and other communications but
will generally conduct further research
before making important decisions, such
as adopting new policies and allocating
or redirecting significant resources to
support these policies.
FDA will use this mechanism to test
messages about regulated drug products
on a variety of subjects related to
consumer, patient, or health care
professional perceptions and about use
of drug products and related materials,
including but not limited to, direct-toconsumer prescription drug promotion,
physician labeling of prescription drugs,
Medication Guides, over-the-counter
drug labeling, emerging risk
communications, patient labeling,
online sale of medical products, and
consumer and professional education.
Annually, FDA projects about 45
communication studies using the
variety of test methods listed in this
document. FDA is requesting this
burden so as not to restrict the Agency’s
ability to gather information on public
sentiment for its proposals in its
regulatory and communications
programs.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:
