Is an NDC required on the labeling of OTC drugs?

  1. Yes, it's required

  2. No, but it's requested

  3. Only for prescription drugs

  4. No, not at all

The correct answer is: No, but it's requested

The answer is that an NDC (National Drug Code) is not required on all OTC (over-the-counter) drug labels, but it is typically requested. This means that while it is not mandatory, it is recommended for manufacturers to include an NDC on their OTC drug products for tracking and identification purposes. Option A is incorrect because it states that it is required, which is not always the case. Option C is also incorrect because an NDC is not only for prescription drugs, as it can also be included on OTC drugs. Option D is also incorrect because an NDC is not required, but it is typically requested for OTC drugs.
