OMB is concerned that the reporting and recordkeeping requirements in the NPRM are overly burdensome and wishes to allow the private sector the opportunity to consider the NPRM. Specifically, OMB has concerns about the utility of various label formats to inform consumers about purchasing and using OTC drug products in a manner that will improve their health.
