Is the National Drug Code (NDC) mandated on the labeling of over-the-counter (OTC) drugs?

  1. Yes, for verification

  2. No, but it is advised to include it

  3. Only on imported drugs

  4. Only on prescription drugs

The correct answer is: No, but it is advised to include it

The National Drug Code (NDC) is not mandated on the labeling of over-the-counter (OTC) drugs, but it is advised to include it. This is because the NDC is a unique identifier assigned to all drugs marketed in the United States, so including it on the label can help with verification and tracking. Option C is incorrect because the NDC is required for all drugs marketed in the US, not just imported drugs. Option D is also incorrect because NDC is required for both prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
