[Docket No. FDA-2009-N-0665]

New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor; Fomepizole

AGENCY:

Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION:

Final rule.

SUMMARY:

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for a new animal drug application (NADA) for fomepizole solution for injection from Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc., to Paladin Labs (USA), Inc.

DATES:

This rule is effective June 5, 2009.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

David R. Newkirk, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV-100), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 240-276-8307, e-mail: david.newkirk@fda.hhs.gov .

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 3180 Porter Dr., Palo Alto, CA 94304, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, NADA 141-075 for ANTIZOL-VET (fomepizole) to Paladin Labs (USA), Inc., 160 Greentree Dr., suite 101, Dover, DE 19904. Accordingly, the agency is amending the regulations in 21 CFR 522.1004 to reflect the transfer of ownership.

Following these changes of sponsorship, Jazz Pharmaceuticals, Inc., is no longer the sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, 21 CFR 510.600(c) is being amended to remove the entries for this sponsor.

In addition, Paladin Labs (USA), Inc., is not currently listed in the animal drug regulations as a sponsor of an approved application. Accordingly, 21 CFR 510.600(c) is being amended to add entries for this sponsor.

This rule does not meet the definition of "rule" in 5 U.S.C. 804(3)(A) because it is a rule of "particular applicability." Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
