delegated to the Director, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, by 
the Commissioner, approval of the applications listed in table 1 in

drug applications violates section 301(a) and (d) of the FD&C Act (21 
U.S.C. 331(a) and (d)). Drug products that are listed in table 1 that 
are in inventory on the date that this notice becomes effective (see 
the DATES section) may continue to be dispensed until the inventories 
have been depleted or the drug products have reached their expiration 
dates or otherwise become violative, whichever occurs first.
