An ANDA applicant who is unable to obtain DECASPRAY (dexamethasone) Topical Aerosol, 0.04%, or AEROSEB-DEX (dexamethasone) Topical Aerosol, 0.01%, for bioequivalence testing should contact the Office of Generic Drugs for a determination of what is necessary to show bioavailability and same therapeutic effect.
