Abstract
DEA is amending its regulations to provide a temporary exemption from registration for persons who distribute pseudoephedrine and phenylpropanolamine drug products. The Comprehensive Methamphetamine Control Act of 1996 (MCA) amends the Controlled Substances Act of 1970 (CSA) to require that, effective October 3, 1997, persons who distribute these drug products shall be subject to the chemical registration requirement. To avoid interruption in the legitimate distribution of the drug products pending promulgation of final regulations and issuance of registrations, DEA is amending its regulations to provide certain temporary exemptions from the registration requirement.
