Executive Summary
FDA TO AIR IDEAS FOR SIMPLIFYING OTC DRUG LABELING in an upcoming proposal that will provide additional suggestions for using interchangeable terminology on OTC packaging, FDA Monograph Review Staff Director William Gilbertson, PharmD, said June 8 at the Drug Information Association's annual meeting in Washington, D.C. In January, the agency finalized a list of terms that could be used interchangeably on OTC packages, including "doctor" and "physician" ("The Tan Sheet" Jan. 31, In Brief). Gilbertson projected that the second "interchangeable terms" document would be published in the Federal Register "very soon."
