Over-the-Counter Drug Products
Introduction
Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
What is the need for over the counter
drug review process
There are more than 100,000 OTC drug products marketed,
encompassing about 800 significant active ingredients.
Most OTC drug products have been marketed for many
years, prior to the laws that require proof of safety and
effectiveness before marketing. For this reason, FDA has
been evaluating the ingredients and labeling of these
products as part of "The OTC Drug Review Program."
Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
of "The OTC Drug Review
Program."
The goal of this program is to establish OTC drug monographs
for each class of products. OTC drug monographs are a kind of
"recipe book" covering acceptable ingredients, doses,
formulations, and labeling. Monographs will continually be
updated adding additional ingredients and labeling as needed.

PMS Information Source Chart
Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
MEDWatch has four goals:
• Make it easier for healthcare providers to report
serious events.
• Make it clearer to healthcare providers what types
of adverse events FDA is interested in receiving.
• More widely disseminate information on the
FDA's actions that have resulted from adverse
event and product problem reporting.
• Increase healthcare providers' understanding and
awareness of drug and device-induced disease.
Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
Spontaneous Reporting System (SRS)
CDER's Division of Pharmacovigilance and Epidemiology
maintains a Spontaneous Reporting System (SRS) which
contains the adverse drug reaction reports from hospitals,
health care providers and lay persons that are sent either
directly to the Agency (via MEDWatch) or first to the drug
manufacturer, and then, by regulation, to the Agency by
the manufacturer.
In the near future, SRS will be replaced by an expanded
system called the Adverse Events Reporting System
(AERS), currently under development.
Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
1.2.4.4 b) Prescription Drug Advertising
and Promotional Labeling
Part of CDER's mission is to assure that prescription drug
information provided by drug firms is truthful, balanced, and
accurately communicated. This is accomplished through a
comprehensive surveillance, enforcement, and education
program, and by fostering better communications of labeling
and promotional information to both health professionals and
consumers.
This work is accomplished primarily through CDER's
Division of Drug Marketing, Advertising and
Communications (DDMAC).
Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
1.2.4.4 c) Pharmaceutical Industry Surveillance
• Government oversight of the pharmaceutical industry is usually
classified into preapproval and post-approval categories.
• After the drug is approved and marketed, the FDA uses different
mechanisms for assuring that firms adhere to the terms and conditions
of approval described in the application and that the drug is
manufactured in a consistent and controlled manner.
• This is done by periodic unannounced inspections of drug production
and control facilities by FDA’s field investigators and analysts. These
professionals are organized under FDA’s Office of Regulatory Affairs
(ORA), which has twenty-one district offices and many more resident
posts throughout the country.

1.2.4.4 e) Drug Shortages
It is FDA's policy to attempt to prevent or alleviate shortages of
medically necessary products.
Reporting Drug Shortages
External reports on drug shortages are received in CDER through a variety of
means. One such means is the Drug Shortage System which is maintained by
the Center's Drug Quality Reporting System (DQRS).
DQRS is the preferred entry point for consumer reports of drug shortages.
Other sources of drug shortage information include FDA's Office of Health
Affairs, which is a focal point for drug shortage reports from health
professionals.
Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
1.2.4.4 f) Therapeutic Inequivalence
Reporting
In the past 10 years, FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research
has received more and more reports of drug products that fail to work in
patients because the product simply has no effect or is toxic. These
problems are usually attributed to switching brands of drugs.
As a result, on Sept. 14, 1988, FDA created in CDER the Therapeutic
Inequivalence Action Coordinating Committee (TIACC) to identify and
evaluate reports of therapeutic failures and toxicity that could indicate
that one product is not equivalent to another similar product.
