SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has 
submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for 
review and clearance.

Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987--Administrative Procedures, 
Policies, and Requirements

OMB Control Number 0910-0435--Extension

    This information collection supports FDA regulations codified at 
part 203 (21 CFR part 203) implementing the Prescription Drug Marketing 
Act of 1987 (PDMA). The PDMA was intended to ensure safe and effective 
drug products and to avoid an unacceptable risk that counterfeit, 
adulterated, misbranded, subpotent, or expired drugs are sold to 
consumers. The reporting and recordkeeping requirements found in the 
regulations are intended to help achieve the following goals: (1) To 
ban the reimportation of prescription drugs produced in the United 
States, except when reimported by the manufacturer or under FDA 
authorization for emergency medical care; (2) to ban the sale, 
purchase, or trade, or the offer to sell, purchase, or trade, of any 
prescription drug sample; (3) to limit the distribution of drug samples 
to practitioners licensed or authorized to prescribe such drugs or to 
pharmacies of hospitals or other healthcare entities at the request of 
a licensed or authorized practitioner; (4) to require licensed or 
authorized practitioners to request prescription drug samples in 
writing; (5) to mandate storage, handling, and recordkeeping 
requirements for prescription drug samples; (6) to prohibit, with 
certain exceptions, the sale, purchase, or trade, or the offer to sell, 
purchase, or trade, of prescription drugs that were purchased by 
hospitals or other healthcare entities or that were donated or supplied 
at a reduced price to a charitable organization; and (7) to require 
unauthorized wholesale distributors to provide, prior to the wholesale 
distribution of a prescription drug to another wholesale distributor or 
retail pharmacy, a statement identifying each prior sale, purchase, or 
trade of the drug.
    In the Federal Register of December 14, 2017 (82 FR 58808), we 
published a notice soliciting public comment of the information 
collection. One caller responded to the notice asking about the impact 
the Drug Supply Chain Security Act (DSCSA) (Title II of the Drug 
Quality Security Act of 2013) has on the information collection. We 
note that the Agency is currently proposing to amend its regulations at 
part 203 to reflect changes resulting from enactment of the DSCSA (RIN 
0910-AH56). While we expect these changes will result in a reduction of 
burden associated with the information collection, current regulations 
and associated information collection requirements remain in effect. 
Upon finalization of rulemaking, we will revise the information 
collection accordingly.
    We therefore estimate the burden for the information collection as 
follows:
