SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: IVX Animal Health, Inc., 3915 South 48th

Glycopyrrolate Injectable is approved as a generic copy of Fort Dodge
Animal Health's, Division of Wyeth's ROBINUL-V (glycopyrrolate),
approved under NADA 101-777. The ANADA is approved as of October 2,
2006, and the regulations are amended in 21 CFR 522.1066 to reflect the
approval and a current format. The basis of approval is discussed in
the freedom of information summary.
In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of 21 CFR
part 20 and 21 CFR 514.11(e)(2)(ii), a summary of safety and
effectiveness data and information submitted to support approval of
this application may be seen in the Division of Dockets Management
(HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm. 1061,
Rockville, MD 20852, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
FDA has determined under 21 CFR 25.33(a)(1) that this action is of
a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a significant
effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an environmental
assessment nor an environmental impact statement is required.
This rule does not meet the definition of ``rule'' in 5 U.S.C.
804(3)(A) because it is a rule of ``particular applicability.''
Therefore, it is not subject to the congressional review requirements
in 5 U.S.C. 801-808.
