Summary: Foley & Lardner LLP, a law firm, is proposing a citizen petition to require clear labeling of animal-derived ingredients in drugs and dietary supplements. They also advocate for encouraging the use of plant-based or synthetic alternatives and allowing for certification symbols to denote the absence of animal-derived ingredients.
Require drug and dietary supplement manufacturers to clearly label whether ingredients used in their products are animal-derived.
Encourage manufacturers to replace animal-derived ingredients with plant-based and/or synthetic alternatives when viable options are available.
Confirm that labeling of drugs and dietary supplements may include a certification symbol denoting the absence of animal-derived ingredients.
