Passage 1Based on a review of your website, “ProGlan Capsules,” “Cordiagra,” and “Prost Aid Tablet” products are drugs under section 201(g)(1) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(g)(1), because they are intended for use in the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease, and/or intended to affect the structure or any function of the body.
Passage 2“ProGlan Capsules,” “Cordiagra,” and “Prost Aid Tablet” are “new drugs” under section 201(p) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(p), because they are not generally recognized as safe and effective (GRASE) for use under the conditions prescribed, recommended, or suggested in their labeling.
Passage 3No approved applications pursuant to section 505 of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355, are in effect for these products. Accordingly, these products are unapproved new drugs.
Passage 4“ProGlan Capsules” is misbranded under section 502(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 352(a), because the product label and/or website include a statement that misleadingly suggests that the drug product is approved or endorsed by FDA in some way.
