Mandatory FDA Listing for Dietary Supplements to Boost Public Transparency.
This Act mandates that manufacturers of dietary supplements must register their products with the FDA, providing detailed information about ingredients, labels, and health claims. This requirement leads to the creation of a public, searchable database, allowing consumers to easily verify and compare products they intend to purchase. Failure to comply with the listing requirement results in the product being classified as misbranded.
Key points
Manufacturers must list all dietary supplements marketed in the U.S. with the FDA, including full labels, ingredients, warnings, and usage directions.
The FDA will establish a public electronic database allowing citizens to easily search and verify product information, enhancing consumer safety and transparency.
Non-compliance with the listing requirement renders the supplement "misbranded," making its introduction into commerce illegal.
The law explicitly states that it does not grant the FDA authority to require pre-market approval for dietary supplements.
