FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
John K. Harshman, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV-104), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 240-276-8197, e-mail: john.harshman@fda.hhs.gov .
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
IVX Animal Health, Inc., 3915 South 48th Street Ter., St. Joseph, MO 64503, filed a supplement to ANADA 200-202 for PHOENECTIN (ivermectin) Liquid for Horses. The supplemental application provides for the addition of indications for use and minor revisions to product labeling that conform to the pioneer product labeling. The supplemental ANADA is approved as of January 24, 2008, and 21 CFR 520.1195 is amended to reflect the approval.
In addition, the regulation is being amended to add the drug labeler code for another approved generic product (69 FR 24958, May 5, 2004), which was removed in error in the Federal Register of September 24, 2004 (69 FR 57173). This action is being taken to improve the accuracy of the regulations.
In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of 21 CFR part 20 and 21 CFR 514.11(e)(2)(ii), a summary of safety and effectiveness data and information submitted to support approval of this application may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061, Rockville, MD 20852, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
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.
List of Subjects in 21 CFR Part 520
