    Therefore, approval of the applications listed in the table, and 
all amendments and supplements thereto, is hereby withdrawn as of 
September 12, 2018. Introduction or delivery for introduction into 
interstate commerce of products without approved new drug applications 
violates section 301(a) and (d) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic 
Act (21 U.S.C. 331(a) and (d)). Drug products that are listed in the 
table that are in inventory on September 12, 2018 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.
