QUANTITY : 5,867 tablets and capsules and 1,475 btls. of liquid at Denver, Colo.,

LABEL IN PART: (Some labels) "Physician's Trial Package," "Physician's Sam- 
ple," "Professional Sample," "Sample - Not To Be Sold," and "Professional

RESULTS OF INVESTIGATION : The articles consisted of quantities of prescription 
drugs repacked from physicians' samples into containers having labels bearing 
brand names indicative of manufacture outside the State of Colorado, and 
quantities of prescription drugs which were not yet repacked, originally in- 
tended for use as samples, and still in the original sample packages bearing 
the names and addresses of manufacturers, packers, or distributors outside 
the State of Colorado.
LIBELED:   7-24-61, Dist. Colo.
CHARGE: 502(a)-while held for sale, the statements "Physician's Trial Pack- 
age," "Physician's Sample," "Professional Sample," "Sample - Not To Be 
Sold," "Professional Specimen," and similar wording on the labels of the 
articles not yet repacked were false and misleading as applied to the articles 
then in the possession of a repacker and intended for sale and not then 
intended for use as "complimentary - not for sale" samples for physicians and 
others lawfully engaged in dispensing prescription drugs; 502(f)(1)-the 
labeling of a number of the repacked articles failed to bear adequate direc- 
tions for use and they were not exempt from that requirement since they 
were subject to the provisions of 503(b) (1) and their labels failed to bear an 
identifying lot number from which it was possible to determine the complete 
manufacturing history as is required by regulations; and 503(b)(4)-the 
repacked articles of drug were subject to 503(b) (1) and their labels failed 
to bear the statement "Caution: Federal law prohibits dispensing without 
prescription."
DISPOSITION :    10-6-61.   Default-destruction.
