    Therefore, approval of the applications listed in the table, and 
all amendments and supplements thereto, is hereby withdrawn as of 
November 30, 2020. Approval of each entire application is withdrawn, 
including any strengths and dosage forms inadvertently missing from the 
table. Introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate 
commerce of products without approved new drug applications violates 
section 301(a) and (d) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 
U.S.C. 331(a) and (d)). Drug products that are listed in the table that 
are in inventory on November 30, 2020 may continue to be dispensed 
until the inventories have been depleted or the drug products have 
reached their expiration dates or otherwise become violative, whichever 
occurs first.

    Dated: October 26, 2020.

Acting Principal Associate Commissioner for Policy.
