FDA published a notice of eligibility and call-for-data for safety and effectiveness data and information on piroctone olamine in the **Federal Register** of February 18, 2004. FDA is taking this action in response to a request for extension of the comment period to allow interested persons additional time to submit data and information on the safety and effectiveness of piroctone olamine as a dandruff control single active ingredient.

Background In the **Federal Register** of February 18, 2004 (69 FR 7652), FDA published a notice of eligibility and call-for-data for safety and effectiveness information on piroctone olamine, 0.05 percent to 0.5 percent and 0.1 percent to 1.0 percent, for use as a dandruff control single active ingredient in leave-on and rinse-off dosage forms, respectively. FDA requested that all data, information, and general comments be submitted by May 18, 2004. II. Extension of Time On April 16, 2004, Keller and Heckman LLP, on behalf of Clariant GmbH, requested a 90-day extension beyond the May 18, 2004, deadline for the submission of safety and effectiveness data concerning piroctone olamine (Ref. 1). The request stated that additional time is needed to assemble a comprehensive submission for this ingredient. FDA considers an extension of time for submission of data, information, and general comments concerning the safety and effectiveness of piroctone olamine to be in the public interest. Accordingly, FDA is extending the comment period for 90 days to August 16, 2004, as requested. III.
