    SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal 
    drug regulations to reflect approval of a supplemental new animal drug 
    application (NADA) filed by Lloyd, Inc. The supplemental NADA provides 
    for intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous use of xylazine 
    injection in cats to produce sedation accompanied by a shorter period 
    of analgesia.
    
    EFFECTIVE DATE: July 6, 1995.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Marcia K. Larkins, Center For 
    Veterinary Medicine (HFV-112), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 
    Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 301-594-0614.
    
    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Lloyd, Inc., 604 W. Thomas Ave., Shenandoah, 
    IA 51601, is sponsor of NADA 139-236, which provides for intravenous, 
    intramuscular, or subcutaneous use of AnaSed Xylazine 
    Injection containing xylazine hydrochloride equivalent to 100 
    milligrams (mg) xylazine per milliliter (mL) in horses and 20 mg/mL in 
    dogs to produce sedation accompanied by a shorter period of analgesia. 
    The supplement provides for use of 20 mg/mL xylazine in cats for the 
    same indications. The drug is limited to use by or on the order of a 
    licensed veterinarian.
         Supplemental NADA 139-236 is approved as a generic copy of Bayer's 
    NADA 47-955 for Rompun (xylazine 20 mg/mL) injectable. The 
    supplemental NADA is approved as of May 16, 1995, and the regulations 
    are amended by revising 21 CFR 522.2662(b) to reflect the approval. The 
    basis of approval is discussed in the freedom of information summary.
         Also, the firm has changed the name of the NADA sponsor from Vet-
    A-Mix, Inc., to Lloyd, Inc. Because Lloyd, Inc., has not previously 
    been listed in the animal drug regulations as the sponsor of an 
    approved application, the agency is amending 21 CFR 510.600(c)(1) and 
    (c)(2) to add entries for Lloyd, Inc.
        In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of part 20 
    (21 CFR part 20) and Sec. 514.11(e)(2)(ii) (21 CFR 514.11(e)(2)(ii)), a 
    summary of safety and effectiveness data and information submitted to 
    support approval of this application may be seen in the Dockets 
    Management Branch (HFA-305), Food and Drug Administration, rm. 1-23, 
    12420 Parklawn Dr., Rockville, MD 20857, between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., 
    Monday through Friday.
        The agency has carefully considered the potential environmental 
    effects of this action. FDA has concluded that the action will not have 
    a significant impact on the human environment, and that an 
    environmental impact statement is not required. The agency's finding of 
    no significant impact and the evidence supporting that finding, 
    contained in an environmental assessment, may be seen in the Dockets 
    Management Branch (address above) between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday 
    through Friday.
