Title: Current Good Manufacturing Practice in Manufacturing, Packing, or Holding Dietary Ingredients and Dietary Supplements 
Abstract: The Food and Drug Administration proposed in the Federal Register of March 13, 2003 (68 FR 12158), current good manufacturing practice (CGMP) regulations for dietary ingredients and dietary supplements. The proposed rule was published to establish the minimum CGMPs necessary to ensure that, if firms engage in activities related to manufacturing, packaging, or holding dietary ingredients or dietary supplements, they do so in a manner that will not adulterate and misbrand such dietary ingredients or dietary supplements. FDA also proposed to require manufacturers to evaluate the identity, purity, quality, strength, and composition of their dietary ingredients and dietary supplements. The proposed rule also responds to concerns that such regulations are necessary to ensure that consumers are provided with dietary supplement products which have not been adulterated as a result of manufacturing, packing, or holding, e.g., which have the identity and provide the quantity of dietary ingredients declared in labeling.
