Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending its regulations to establish the notification procedures for manufacturers, packers, or distributors of dietary supplements who are marketing dietary supplement products that bear statements under a provision of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act). The agency is adopting this procedure to ensure that notification is accomplished efficiently. FDA instituted this proceeding to help the industry comply with the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (the DSHEA).
