The product is also an unapproved new drug, violating 21 U.S.C. 355(a), as it lacks FDA approval and does not conform to the Tentative Final Monograph for OTC topical antiseptics, which requires at least 60% alcohol. Furthermore, it is misbranded under 21 U.S.C. 352(a), (c), (x), and (ee) because of false labeling regarding ethanol concentration, unauthorized use of the "FDA" logo, non-compliant "Drug Facts" panel formatting (missing headings, extraneous information), and failure to disclose a complete domestic address or phone number for adverse event reporting.
