[Code of Federal Regulations] [Title 21, Volume 4] [Revised as of April 1, 2001] From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access [CITE: 21CFR201.127] [Page 54] TITLE 21--FOOD AND DRUGS CHAPTER I--FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION, DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES PART 201--LABELING--Table of Contents Subpart D--Exemptions From Adequate Directions for Use Sec. 201.127 Drugs; expiration of exemptions. (a) If a shipment or delivery, or any part thereof, of a drug which is exempt under the regulations in this section is made to a person in whose possession the article is not exempt, or is made for any purpose other than those specified, such exemption shall expire, with respect to such shipment or delivery or part thereof, at the beginning of that shipment or delivery. The causing of an exemption to expire shall be considered an act which results in such drug being misbranded unless it is disposed of under circumstances in which it ceases to be a drug or device. (b) The exemptions conferred by Secs. 201.117, 201.119, 201.120, 201.122, and 201.125 shall continue until the drugs are used for the purposes for which they are exempted, or until they are relabeled to comply with section 502(f)(1) of the act. If, however, the drug is converted, compounded, or manufactured into a dosage form limited to prescription dispensing, no exemption shall thereafter apply to the article unless the dosage form is labeled as required by section 503(b) and Secs. 201.100 or 201.105.
