\1\ This product included an oral pressurized metered-dose inhaler that
  contained chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) as a propellant. CFCs may no
  longer be used as a propellant for any albuterol or salmeterol metered-
  dose inhalers (see 70 FR 17168, April 4, 2005; 71 FR 70870, December
  7, 2006).

    Therefore, under section 505(e) of the Federal Food, Drug, and 
Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) (21 U.S.C. 355(e)) and under authority 
delegated to the Director, Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, by 
the Commissioner, approval of the applications listed in table 1 in 
this document, and all amendments and supplements thereto, is hereby 
withdrawn, effective April 18, 2012. Introduction or delivery for 
introduction into interstate commerce of products without approved new 
drug applications violates section 301(a) and (d) of the FD&C Act (21 
U.S.C. 331(a) and (d)). Drug products that are listed in table 1 in 
this document that are in inventory on the date that this notice 
becomes effective (see the DATES section) may continue to be dispensed 
until the inventories have been depleted or the drug products have 
reached their expiration dates or otherwise become violative, whichever 
occurs first.
