Mandatory Dietary Supplement Listing: Increased Transparency for Consumers and FDA Oversight.
This law mandates that manufacturers register all dietary supplements marketed in the US with the FDA, providing detailed ingredient lists and product information. This change creates a public database, giving consumers unprecedented access to verified information about what they are consuming, including ingredients, warnings, and health claims. The goal is to enhance consumer safety and market transparency.
Key points
Manufacturers must submit comprehensive details, including all ingredients, amounts per serving, and an electronic copy of the product label, to the FDA.
The FDA will establish a public, searchable electronic database containing most of this product information for consumer use within two years.
Failure to list a supplement or update its information will result in the product being classified as "misbranded," making its sale illegal.
