Our review determined that your firm has submitted a label for this drug that does not match the name of the listed drug. As such, your firm is in violation of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) as explained below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>We note that FDA previously sent your firm two letters, one on April 13, 2020 notifying you of listing deficiencies and a subsequent removal notification on May 28, 2020. As stated in the removal notification letter, the continued deficiency resulted in your product’s removal from FDA’s Online NDC Directory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Section 510(j) of the FD&C Act and 21 CFR 207 outline drug registration and listing requirements. Under section 510(j)(1)(B)(ii), 21 U.S.C. 360(j)(1)(B)(ii), a firm must include in the listing, among other requirements, the “label and package insert for such [listed] drug.” However, the label you provided to FDA does not match the drug you listed with FDA. Specifically, the label image you provided to FDA states “triamcinolone 0.1 % ointment,” whereas the product name included in the drug listing submission is “clotrimazole and betamethasone dipropionate cream.” These are different drug products with different active ingredients.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Therefore, your firm has not fulfilled its listing obligations under section 510(j) of the FD&C Act, which is a prohibited act under section 301(p), 21 U.S.C. 360(j) and 331(p). In addition, failure to properly list a drug with FDA also renders it misbranded under section 502(o) of the FD&C Act, and in violation of section 301(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 352(o) and 331(a).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\u003Cp>Complete, accurate and up-to-date establishment registration and drug listing information is essential to promote and protect patient safety.
