SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Med-Pharmex, Inc., 2727 Thompson Creek Rd., Pomona, CA 91767-1861, filed a supplement to ANADA 200-292 for IVERSOL (ivermectin) Liquid for Horses for the oral treatment and control of various species of internal parasites or parasitic conditions. The supplement provides for revisions to label indications and to the food safety warning. The supplemental ANADA is approved as of May 30, 2006, and 21 CFR 520.1195 is amended to reflect the approval.
Approval of this supplemental ANADA did not require review of additional safety or effectiveness data or information. Therefore, a freedom of information summary is not required.
The agency has determined under 21 CFR 25.33(a)(1) that this action is of a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required.
This rule does not meet the definition of "rule" in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a rule of "particular applicability." Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
