In its continued commitment to clarify and streamline regulatory policy, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration’s Center for Veterinary Medicine withdrew 27 compliance policy guides (CPGs) Feb. 20 pertaining to a variety of animal food and drug-related issues.
The CPGs were withdrawn, in most cases, because they were obsolete (in conflict with, or not reflective of, FDA’s current thinking) or replaced by more recent agency policies, the agency said.
For example, several of the withdrawn CPGs are no longer needed because they are superseded by the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act requirements for current good manufacturing practices and risk-based preventive controls for animal food. FDA has also determined that the topics of many of the withdrawn CPGs are already addressed by relevant existing sections of the Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act.
The withdrawn CPGs include:
CPG 605.100 Use of Statements Regarding NADA Approval by FDA in Labeling & Advertising of New Animal Drugs
