Summary

This bill would amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act to require drug labels to identify all ingredients that are major food allergens or derived from gluten-containing grains such as wheat, barley, and rye. Drug manufacturers would be required to clearly state on the label that the drug contains such an ingredient and identify each allergen or gluten-containing grain present. The new labeling requirement would take effect either on a date chosen by the Secretary of Health and Human Services or two years after the bill's enactment, whichever comes first. Drugs that fail to comply with the new labeling requirements would be considered misbranded.
