Over-the-Counter Drug Products
Over-the-Counter (OTC) drug products are those drugs that are available to consumers without a
prescription. There are more than 80 classes (therapeutic categories) of OTC drugs, ranging from acne
drug products to weight control drug products. As with prescription drugs, CDER oversees OTC drugs to
ensure that they are properly labeled and that their benefits outweigh their risks.
OTC drugs play an increasingly vital role in America's health care system by providing easy access to
certain drugs that can be used safely without the help of a health care practitioner. This enables
consumers to take control of their own health care in many situations. 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." 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. Products conforming to a monograph may be marketed without
further FDA clearance, while those that do not, must undergo separate review and approval through the
"New Drug Approval System." The NDA system--and not the monograph system--is also used for new
ingredients entering the OTC marketplace for the first time. For example, the newer OTC products
[previously available only by prescription] are first approved through the NDA system and their "switch"
to OTC status is approved via the NDA system.
FDA's review of OTC drugs is primarily handled by CDER's Division of Over-the-Counter Drug
Products in the Office of Drug Evaluation V. However, scientists and regulators throughout CDER, the
Office of General Counsel, and other Centers within FDA are routinely asked to assist in this massive
effort. There is also an advisory committee, "The Nonprescription Drug Advisory Committee," which
meets regularly to assist the agency in evaluating issues surrounding these products.

Did you know that generic drugs...
• Are safe and effective alternatives to brand
name prescriptions
• Can help both consumers and the
government reduce the cost of prescription
drugs
• Are currently used in 50% of all
prescriptions dispensed
• Save an average of $50 for every
prescription sold

2
Hatch-Waxman Amendments
to FFD&C Act - 1984
• Considered one of the most successful
pieces of legislation ever passed
• Created the generic drug industry
• Increased availability of generics
• 1984
12% prescriptions were generic
• 2000 44% prescriptions were generic - yet only
8% of revenue for prescription drugs
• Compromise legislation to benefit both
brand and generic firms

Hatch-Waxman Amendments
to FFD&C Act - 1984
• Allowed generic firms to rely on findings
of safety and efficacy of innovator drug
after expiration of patents and
exclusivities (do not have to repeat
expensive clinical and pre-clinical trials)
• Allowed patent extensions and
exclusivities to innovator firms

How do we assure the quality
of generic drugs?
• First 5 steps of review process are identical
to NDA process
• Bioequivalence for complicated products is
discussed with the same staff that reviewed
the brand product
• FDA has experience with the product
• Scientific literature published
• Product is known to be safe

• All FDA approved drug products listed
(NDA’s, OTC’s & ANDA’s)
– Therapeutic equivalence codes
 “A” = Substitutable
 “B” = Inequivalent, NOT Substitutable
– Expiration dates: patent and exclusivity
– Reference Listed Drugs/brand drugs
identified by FDA for generic companies
to compare with their proposed products

Definition of Bioequivalence
Pharmaceutical equivalents whose rate
and extent of absorption are not
statistically different when
administered to patients or subjects
at the same molar dose under similar
experimental conditions
Center for Drug Evaluation & Research
U.S. Food & Drug Administration
15
Purpose of BE
• Therapeutic equivalence (TE)
• Bioequivalent products can be
substituted for each other without any
adjustment in dose or other additional
therapeutic monitoring
• The most efficient method of assuring
TE is to assure that the formulations
perform in an equivalent manner

• Can there be a 46% difference?
• What is a point estimate?
• What is a confidence interval?

24
Statistical Analysis
• Bioequivalence criteria
– Two one-sided tests procedure
• Test (T) is not significantly less than
reference
• Reference (R) is not significantly less than
test
• Significant difference is 20% ( = 0.05
significance level)
– T/R = 80/100 = 80%
– R/T = 80% (all data expressed as T/R so
this becomes 100/80 = 125%)
