FDA, Washington, D.C., has published a direct final rule in the Federal Register to amend its regulations on labeling of botanical ingredients in dietary supplements by incorporating the current editions of the American Herbal Product Association’s (AHPA) Herbs of Commerce and of the International Code of Botanical Nomenclature (St. Louis Code). The new rule will become effective on January 1, 2006, consistent with FDA’s published policy on uniform effective dates for food labeling regulations. According to the Consumer Healthcare Products Association (CHPA), Washington, D.C., the FDA’s amendments specifically included the replacement of two outdated reference books with authoritative botanical names or naming with the 2000 editions of the same books, the incorporation of new statutory restrictions on the use of the word “ginseng” in dietary supplement labeling and the continuation of the use of “plain English” or internationally accepted botanical terminology.
