ACTION: Notice. SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) has determined that Dextrose, 20 grams (g)/ 100 milliliters (mL), and Dextrose, 50 g/ 100 mL, in plastic containers, were not withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination will allow FDA to approve abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) for Dextrose, 20 g/100 mL, and Dextrose, 50 g/100 mL, in plastic containers, if all other legal and regulatory requirements are met.

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 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 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, drugs are 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approval of the drug’s NDA or ANDA for reasons of safety or effectiveness or if FDA determines that the listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness (21 CFR 314.162). A person may petition the Agency to determine, or the Agency may determine on its own initiative, whether a listed drug was withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination may be made at any time after the drug has been withdrawn from sale, but must be made prior to approving an ANDA that refers to the listed drug (§ 314.161 (21 CFR 314.161)). FDA may not approve an ANDA that does not refer to a listed drug. Dextrose, 20 g/100 mL, and Dextrose, 50 g/100 mL, in plastic containers, are the subject of NDA 017521, held by Baxter Healthcare Corporation and initially approved on August 28, 1979. Dextrose, 20 g/100 mL, and Dextrose, 50 g/100 mL, in plastic containers, are indicated as a source of calories when mixed with amino acids or other compatible intravenous fluids for patients requiring parenteral nutrition when oral or enteral nutrition is not SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\20AUN1.SGM 20AUN1
