Information about Compliance Policy Guides
A complete library of on-line FDA Compliance Policy Guides, including general and veterinary medicine guides, is available on the U.S. Food and Drug Administration web page.
The purpose of the Compliance Policy Guides (CPG) Manual is to provide a convenient and organized system for statements of FDA compliance policy, including those statements which contain regulatory action guidance information. The statements made in the CPG are not intended to create or confer any rights, privileges, or benefits on or for any private person, but are intended for internal guidance.
The CPG Manual is the repository for all agency compliance policy that has been agreed to by the center(s) and the Associate Commissioner for Regulatory Affairs. Examples of sources form which CPGs are prepared include: a) statements or correspondence by headquarters offices of centers reflecting new policy or changes in compliance policy including Office of the Commissioner memoranda, center memoranda and other information issuances, agency correspondence with trade groups and regulated industries, and advisory opinions; b) precedent court decisions; c) multicenter agreements regarding jurisdiction over FDA regulated products; d) preambles to proposed or final regulations or other Federal Register documents; and f) individual regulatory actions.
