New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor's Name; Iron Injection;

Technical Amendment

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor's name from Animal

Health Pharmaceuticals, LLC, to Pharmacosmos, Inc.

DATES: This rule is effective March 18, 2008.

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: Animal Health Pharmaceuticals, LLC, 1805 Oak

Ridge Circle, suite 101, St. Joseph, MO 64506, has informed FDA that it has transferred ownership of, and all rights and interest in, NADA 106- 772 for Iron-GARD Injection 100 milligrams per milliliter (mg/mL) and

NADA 134-708 for Iron-GARD Injection 200 mg/mL to Pharmacosmos, Inc., 776 Mountain Blvd., Watchung, NJ 07069. Accordingly, the regulations are amended in 21 CFR 522.1182 to reflect these changes of sponsorship.

In addition, Pharmacosmos, 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

Pharmacosmos, Inc.

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.
