21 CFR Parts 510, 522, and 524

[Docket No. FDA-2012-N-0002]


New Animal Drugs; Change of Sponsor; Change of Sponsor Address; 
Azaperone; Miconazole, Polymyxin B, and Prednisolone Suspension

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal 
drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor for two new animal drug 
applications (NADAs) from Janssen Pharmaceutica NV, to Elanco Animal 
Health, a Division of Eli Lilly & Co. FDA is also amending the animal 
drug regulations to reflect a change of sponsor's address for 
Veterinary Service, Inc.

DATES: This rule is effective August 6, 2012.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Steven D. Vaughn, Center for 
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-100), Food and Drug Administration, 7520 
Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 240-276-8300, email: 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Janssen Pharmaceutica NV, Turnhoutseweg 30, 
B-2340 Beerse, Belgium, has informed FDA that it has transferred 
ownership of, and all rights and interest in, NADA 115-732 for STRESNIL 
(azaperone) Injection and NADA 141-298 for SUROLAN (miconazole nitrate, 
polymyxin B sulfate, prednisolone acetate) Otic Suspension to Elanco 
Animal Health, a Division of Eli Lilly & Co., Lilly Corporate Center, 
Indianapolis, IN 46285. Following these changes of sponsorship, Janssen 
Pharmaceutica NV will no longer be the sponsor of an approved 
application. Accordingly, the Agency is amending the regulations in 21 
CFR 510.600, 522.150, and 524.1445 to reflect the transfer of 
ownership.
    In addition, Veterinary Service, Inc., 416 North Jefferson St., 
P.O. Box 2467,

[[Page 46613]]

Modesto, CA 95354 has informed FDA of a change of address to 4100 Bangs 
Ave., Modesto, CA 95356. Accordingly, the Agency is amending the 
regulations in 21 CFR 510.600 to reflect these changes.
    This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C. 
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.'' 
Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements 
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
