ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal
drug regulations to reflect approval of an abbreviated new animal drug
application (ANADA) filed by Phoenix Pharmaceutical, Inc. The ANADA
provides for intramuscular use of ketamine hydrochloride injection in
cats for restraint or as the sole anesthetic agent for diagnostic or
minor, brief, surgical procedures that do not require skeletal muscle
relaxation, and in subhuman primates for restraint.
EFFECTIVE DATE: August 15, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Charles W. Francis, Center For
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-114), Food and Drug Administration, 7500

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Phoenix Pharmaceutical, Inc., 4621 Easton
Rd., P.O. Box 6457 Farleigh Station, St. Joseph, MO 64506-0457, filed
ANADA 200-042. The ANADA provides for intramuscular use of
Ketaject (ketamine hydrochloride injection, U.S.P.) in cats
for restraint or as the sole anesthetic agent for diagnostic or minor,
brief, surgical procedures that do not require skeletal muscle
relaxation, and in subhuman primates for restraint. The drug is limited
to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.
Approval of ANADA 200-042 for Phoenix's Ketaject
Injection is as a generic copy of Fort Dodge's NADA 045-290 for
Vetalar/Ketaset (ketamine hydrochloride injection,
U.S.P.). The ANADA is approved as of June 30, 1994, and the regulations
in 21 CFR 522.1222a(c) are amended to reflect the approval. The basis
for approval is discussed in the freedom of information summary.
In addition, Phoenix Pharmaceutical, Inc., has not been previously
listed in 21 CFR 510.600(c) as a sponsor of an approved application.
Accordingly, that section is amended to add entries for the firm.
In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of part 20
(21 CFR part 20) and Sec. 514.11(e)(2)(ii) (21 CFR 514.11(e)(2)(ii)), a
summary of safety and effectiveness data and information submitted to
support approval of this application may be seen in the Dockets
Management Branch (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, rm. 1-23,
12420 Parklawn Dr., Rockville, MD 20857, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m.,
Monday through Friday.
The agency has carefully considered the potential environmental
effects of this action. FDA has concluded that the action will not have
a significant impact on the human environment, and that an
environmental impact statement is not required. The agency's finding of
no significant impact and the evidence supporting that finding,
contained in an environmental assessment, may be seen in the Dockets
Management Branch (address above) between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday
through Friday.
