Question:

Laws related to CAM Current Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP) ruling of 2007

Answer:

designed to ensure that dietary supplements be devoid of adulterants, contaminants, and impurities and that package labels accurately reflect the identity, purity, quality, and strength of what is inside. In addition, the label should indicate not only active ingredients but also inactive ingredients. The CGMP also mandates that manufacturers establish quality-control procedures, with the objective of preventing mislabeled, underfilled, or overfilled formulations; variations in tablet size, color, or potency; and contamination with drugs, bacteria, pesticides, glass, lead, and other potential contaminants.

Question:

Laws related to CAM Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA) of 1994

Answer:

requires that conventional drugs—both prescription and over-the-counter agents—undergo rigorous evaluation of safety and efficacy before receiving FDA approval for marketing.

The DSHEA does impose some restrictions on labeling. All herbal products must be labeled as dietary supplements. In addition, the label must not claim that the product can be used to diagnose, prevent, treat, or cure a disease. In fact, it must state the opposite: this product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. However, the label is allowed to make claims about the product's ability to favorably influence body structure or function.
