SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. Specific Requirements on Content and Format of Labeling for Human Prescription Drugs; Addition of “Geriatric Use” Subsection in the Labeling (OMB Control No. 0910-0370)—Extension Section 201.57(f)(10) (21 CFR 201.57(f)(10)) requires that the “Precautions” section of prescription drug labeling must include a subsection on the use of the drug in elderly or geriatric patients (aged 65 and over). The information collection burden imposed by this regulation is necessary to facilitate the safe and effective use of prescription drugs in older populations. The geriatric use subsection enables physicians to more effectively access geriatric information in physician prescription drug labeling. **Table** 1.— **Estimated Annual Reporting Burden** 1 21 CFR Section No. of Respondents per Response Annual Frequency per Response Total Annual Responses Hours per Response Total Hours 201.57(f)(10)—new drug applications 83 1.49 124 8 992 201.57(f)(10)—abbreviated new drug applications 117 3.96 464 2 928 Total 1,920 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.
