This training will review the dietary supplement regulations in the USA and explain how to verify that your products are compliant with the most recent regulations and provisions. It covers the FDA regulatory structure and considerations for manufacturing, labeling, and advertising dietary supplements.
Why Should Attend
With the FDA beginning to take a stronger stance on Dietary Supplement enforcement, it is important for companies to verify that their products comply with the latest regulations and provisions.
This 120-minute training will review the dietary supplement regulations and discuss how to verify that your products are compliant, while citing differences with food and drug regulations. We will also cover what qualifies a material as a dietary ingredient, considerations for manufacturers and distributors, requirements for compliant labeling, and acceptable marketing claims. An update on the FDA’s draft guidance for New Dietary Ingredients and an overview of the Dietary Supplement Labeling Act (both introduced in 2011) will also be discussed.
