  • Title: Combination products regulation at the FDA.
    Author: Lauritsen KJ, Nguyen T.
    Journal: Clin Pharmacol Ther; 2009 May; 85(5):468-70. PubMed ID: 19381151.
    Abstract:
    The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responsible for protecting the public health by assuring the safety, efficacy, and security of drugs, biological products, and medical devices. As single-entity products, drugs are generally regulated by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), devices by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH), and biologics by the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER). In recent years, technological advances have led to a blurring of the historical lines of separation between the centers.
