SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
FDA is announcing the availability of a guidance for industry
entitled ``Pediatric Information Incorporated Into Human Prescription
Drug and Biological Product Labeling.'' This guidance is intended to
assist applicants in determining the appropriate placement and content
of pediatric information in human prescription drug and biological
product labeling as described in the regulations for the content and
format of labeling for human prescription drug and biological products.
This guidance finalizes the draft guidance issued on February 28, 2013.
Changes were made to make the guidance more user-friendly and to be
consistent with recently published labeling guidances.
This guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The guidance represents the
current thinking of FDA on pediatric information incorporated into
human prescription drug and biological product labeling. It does not
establish any rights for any person and is not binding on FDA or the
public. You can use an alternative approach if it satisfies the
requirements of the applicable statutes and regulations. This guidance
is not subject to Executive Order 12866.
II. The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
This guidance refers to previously approved collections of
information
[[Page 11807]]
found in FDA regulations. These collections of information are subject
to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The collections
of information in 21 CFR 201.56 and 201.57 have been approved under OMB
control number 0910-0572.
