- Description:
- The document is a letter from the National Association of Retail Druggists to Congressman Schwabe, urging him to support the passage of H.R. 3298, a bill to amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. The bill aims to protect public health by regulating the labeling and dispensing of prescription drugs and relaxing unrealistic provisions regulating the filling and refilling of prescriptions. The document argues that the bill has the support of the United States Food and Drug Administration and is necessary to prevent injury to public health.
