Abstract: FDA's legal authority to modify and simplify the manner in which certain information is presented in over-the-counter (OTC) drug product labeling derives from sections 201, 502, 503, 505, and 701 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetics Act (the act). Regulating the order, appearance, and format of OTC drug product labeling is consistent with FDA's authority to ensure that drug labeling conveys all material information to the consumer (sections 201(n) and 502(a) of the act), and that labeling communicates this information in a manner that is ''likely to be read and understood by the ordinary individual under customary conditions of purchase and use'' (section 502(c) of the act).
