TITLE: Labeling and Effectiveness Testing; Sunscreen Drug Products for Over-the-Counter Human Use; Delay of Compliance Dates ; ; AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, Department of Health and Human Services ; ; ACTION: Final rule; delay of compliance dates; request for comments ; ; SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is delaying the compliance dates for the final rule for over-the-counter (OTC) sunscreen drug products that published in the Federal Register of 17 June 2011 (76 FR 35620).

The 2011 final rule's compliance dates are being delayed because information received after publication of the 2011 final rule indicates that full implementation of the 2011 final rule's requirements for all affected products will require an additional 6 months. This final rule is part of FDA's ongoing review of OTC drug products. ; ; DATES: ; Effective Date: This final rule is effective 18 June 2012.
