Dietary Supplements FAQs

What is DSHEA and how does it apply to my supplement?

The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act sets the framework for how supplements are regulated, including labeling, ingredient safety, and claims, separate from conventional food and drug rules.

Do I need to notify the FDA before launching a new ingredient?

Yes, if it’s a New Dietary Ingredient (NDI) not already marketed before October 1994. Notification must reach the FDA at least 75 days before the product goes to market.

What’s the required disclaimer on supplement labels?

Any label making a structure/function claim must include the FDA-mandated disclaimer stating the claim hasn’t been evaluated by the FDA and the product isn’t intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease.

What manufacturing standard applies to dietary supplements?

Current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) under 21 CFR Part 111, a separate standard from the preventive controls rule that applies to most other food categories.
