  • Bulk Drug Substances Nominated for Use in Compounding Under Section 503B of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act
    Updated June 07, 2021 Bulk Drug Substances Nominated for Use in Compounding Under Section 503B of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act Three categories of bulk drug substances: • Category 1: Bulk Drug Substances Under Evaluation • Category 2: Bulk Drug Substances that Raise Significant Safety Risks • Category 3: Bulk Drug Substances Nominated Without Adequate Support Updates to Categories of Substances Nominated for the 503B Bulk Drug Substances List1 • Add the following entry to category 2 due to serious safety concerns of mutagenicity, cytotoxicity, and possible carcinogenicity when quinacrine hydrochloride is used for intrauterine administration for non- surgical female sterilization: 2,3 o Quinacrine Hydrochloride for intrauterine administration • Revision to category 1 for clarity: o Modify the entry for “Quinacrine Hydrochloride” to “Quinacrine Hydrochloride (except for intrauterine administration).” • Revision to category 1 to correct a substance name error: o Correct the error in the substance name “DHEA (dehydroepiandosterone)” to “DHEA (dehydroepiandrosterone).” 1 For the purposes of the substance names in the categories, hydrated forms of the substance are included in the scope of the substance name. 2 Quinacrine HCl was previously reviewed in 2016 as part of FDA’s consideration of this bulk drug substance for inclusion on the 503A Bulks List. As part of this review, the Division of Bone, Reproductive and Urologic Products (DBRUP), now the Division of Urology, Obstetrics and Gynecology (DUOG), evaluated the nomination of quinacrine for intrauterine administration for non-surgical female sterilization and recommended that quinacrine should not be included on the 503A Bulks List for this use. This recommendation was based on the lack of information on efficacy comparable to other available methods of female sterilization and serious safety concerns of mutagenicity, cytotoxicity and possible carcinogenicity in use of quinacrine for this indication and route of administration.

  • Assessment of the Antibiotic Resistance Effects of Biocides
    Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks SCENIHR Assessment of the Antibiotic Resistance Effects of Biocides The SCENIHR adopted this opinion at the 28th plenary on 19 January 2009 after public consultation. 1 Antibiotic Resistance Effects of Biocides About the Scientific Committees Three independent non-food Scientific Committees provide the Commission with the scientific advice it needs when preparing policy and proposals relating to consumer safety, public health and the environment. The Committees also draw the Commission's attention to the new or emerging problems which may pose an actual or potential threat. They are: the Scientific Committee on Consumer Products (SCCP), the Scientific Committee on Health and Environmental Risks (SCHER) and the Scientific Committee on Emerging and Newly Identified Health Risks (SCENIHR), and are made up of external experts. In addition, the Commission relies upon the work of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), the European Medicines Evaluation Agency (EMEA), the European Centre for Disease prevention and Control (ECDC) and the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA). SCENIHR Questions concerning emerging or newly-identified risks and on broad, complex or multi- disciplinary issues requiring a comprehensive assessment of risks to consumer safety or public health and related issues not covered by other Community risk-assessment bodies. In particular, the Committee addresses questions related to potential risks associated with interaction of risk factors, synergic effects, cumulative effects, antimicrobial resistance, new technologies such as nanotechnologies, medical devices, tissue engineering, blood products, fertility reduction, cancer of endocrine organs, physical hazards such as noise and electromagnetic fields and methodologies for assessing new risks.

One of the recom- mendations made by this meeting was that the international organizations of the United Nations family should assist in the collection and distribution of information on environmental mercury. Subsequently, the organizations concerned agreed that a handbook on mercury contamination would be es- pecially useful. This would deal with sources of mercury in relation to man and his environment; with physical and biological transfer processes that determine its distribution; with analytical methods for determining mercury and its compounds as environmental contaminants; with actual concentrations of mercury found in the environment, in living organisms and in man; and with its toxicology in animals and man.

  • Chemical Safety and Waste Management Manual
    Chemical Safety and Waste Management Manual University of Alabama at Birmingham Department of Occupational Health & Safety Chemical Safety Division 2002 EDITION 1. INTRODUCTION In a comparatively short time, the University of Alabama at Birmingham has gained significant recognition as a center of excellence for teaching, medical services and research programs. This is a highly commendable achievement and one that could not have been realized without the continued support and dedication of faculty, staff members, and employees. Similar unfailing cooperation and support are necessary for the institution to be equally successful in its development of a comprehensive occupational health and safety program for the protection of University personnel, students, and the surrounding community. An important part of this program is concerned with the safe and prudent handling of chemicals and their proper legal disposal as regulated by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM). Almost every laboratory and many allied and support personnel at UAB use chemicals in their daily activities. It is the purpose of this manual to describe the operation of the Chemical Safety Program and to provide guidance in establishing safe work practices for the use of chemicals. This program applies to all work operations at this University where employees may be exposed to hazardous substances under normal working conditions or during an emergency. The Chemical Safety and Waste Management Manual combines both the Chemical Hygiene Plan for laboratories and the Hazard Communication Program for maintenance, environmental services, and other support personnel. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard may be found at : http://www.osha- slc.gov/OshStd_data/1910_1200.html.

Background of enactment of the ministerial ordinance Act on Preventing Environmental Pollution of Mercury (Act No. 42 of 2015), as a measure to ensure the implementation of Article 4(6) of the Minamata Convention on Mercury (hereinafter referred to as “the Convention”), lays out the basic principle of banning the manufacture and distribution in commerce of mercury-added products not covered by mercury-added products for known use (hereinafter referred to as “mercury added products for new use”) unless the use of such products demonstrates environmental or human health benefits. Further, businesses intending to be engaged in the manufacture or distribution in commerce of “mercury-added products for new use” are required to carry out a self-assessment of use of their “mercury-added products for new use” and notify its result to the competent minister. The Ministerial Ordinance of the Act specifies mercury-added products for known use and the method of the self-assessment of the manufacture or distribution in commerce of “mercury-added products for new use”. 2. Outline (1) Mercury-added products for known use “Mercury-added products for known use” are listed in Annex. However, based on identification of current practice of use of “mercury-added products for known use”, addition or revision to Annex may occur in the future.
