The information collection supports agency regulations at 21 CFR 201.66. Respondents to the collection of information are producers or manufacturers of drug products requiring over-the-counter (OTC) labeling subject to these regulatory requirements.
The information collection reflects adjustments. We have adjusted our estimate to reflect an increase of 82,797 hours and a corresponding increase of 6,898 disclosures. The increase corresponds with agency data on the number of labeling reviews associated with new OTC drug product submissions. We discuss this more fully in our supporting statement at question 15.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
