The sponsors requested withdrawal of approval of the NADA's because
the drug products are no longer being marketed. This final rule removes
21 CFR 520.704, 522.514, and 522.1880, and amends 21 CFR 522.540 and
522.1720 to reflect the withdrawal of approval of these NADA's.
In addition, 21 CFR 510.600(c) is amended to remove the entries for
the three sponsors from the list of approved drug sponsors because they
no longer hold any approved NADA's.
