Learn More🎨FDA Guidance on Replacing Color Additives in Drug Products
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or Agency) is announcing the availability of a draft guidance for industry entitled "Replacing Color Additives in Approved or Marketed Drug Products." This draft guidance provides recommendations for replacing color additives in approved or marketed drug products. If a color additive is replaced in a drug product, information to support the change should be retained and available at the manufacturing facility. Additionally, this draft guidance recommends that new drug application (NDA) and abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) holders submit information to support color additive replacements in changes being effected in 30 days (CBE-30) supplements. Although a qualitative or quantitative change to an inactive ingredient is generally considered a major change, in many cases, replacing a color additive with one that is listed in the color additive regulations is unlikely to adversely affect the identity, strength, quality, purity, or potency of the drug product. Therefore, this draft guidance recommends a CBE-30 for such a change.

Learn More🧪Amendments to PFAS Data Reporting Regulations
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or Agency) is amending the data submission period for the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) PFAS reporting rule by changing the start date for submissions and making corresponding changes to the end dates for the submission period, i.e., the data submission period begins on April 13, 2026, and ends on October 13, 2026, with an alternate end date for small manufacturers reporting exclusively as article importers of April 13, 2027. As promulgated in October 2023, the regulation requires manufacturers (including importers) of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in any year between 2011-2022 to report certain data to EPA related to exposure and environmental and health effects. This change is necessary because EPA requires more time to prepare the reporting application to collect this data. The Agency is separately considering reopening certain aspects of the rule to public comment. The delayed reporting date ensures that EPA has adequate time to consider the public comments and propose and finalize any modifications to the rule before the submission period begins.
