SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    The FDA is announcing the availability of a draft GFI #292 entitled 
``Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls Considerations for Type A 
Medicated Articles.'' This draft guidance provides recommendations to 
sponsors submitting CMC information for Type A medicated articles. Type 
A medicated articles contain new animal drugs and provide for 
administration of these drugs in animal feed. Type A medicated articles 
are intended solely for use in the manufacture of another Type A 
medicated article or in the manufacture of a Type B or Type C medicated 
feed. Because Type A medicated articles are not directly administered 
to the animal, there are some issues specific to Type A medicated 
articles that do not apply to other new animal drug dosage forms. These 
unique considerations are highlighted in this guidance under the 
relevant Common Technical Document--Quality section headings.
    This level 1 draft guidance is being issued consistent with FDA's 
good guidance practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115). The draft guidance, 
when finalized, will represent the current thinking of FDA on 
``Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls Considerations for Type A 
Medicated Articles.'' It does not establish any rights for any person 
and is not binding on FDA or the public. You can use an alternative 
approach if it satisfies the requirements of the applicable statutes 
and regulations.

II. Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

    While this guidance contains no collection of information, it does 
refer to previously approved FDA collections of information. The 
previously approved collections of information are subject to review by 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3521). The collections of information 
in 21 CFR part 514 have been approved under OMB control numbers 0910-
0032; the collections of information in 21 CFR 511.1 have been approved 
under OMB control number 0910-0117; and the collections of information 
in sections 512(b) and 512(n) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic 
Act (21 U.S.C. 360b(b) and 360b(n)) have been approved under OMB 
control number 0910-0669.
