The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has determined that ZOMETA (zoledronic acid for injection), equivalent to (EQ) 4 milligrams (mg) base/vial, lyophilized powder for injection, was not withdrawn from sale for reasons of safety or effectiveness. This determination will allow FDA to approve abbreviated new drug applications (ANDAs) for zoledronic acid lyophilized powder for injection, 4-mg base/vial. The Federal Register published the FDA docket "Determination That ZOMETA (Zoledronic Acid for Injection), Equivalent to 4 Milligrams Base Per Vial, Lyophilized Powder for Injection, Was Not Withdrawn From Sale for Reasons of Safety or Effectiveness (pdf)."

According to IP Pharma Doc's post, Zoledronic acid (ZOMETA) lyophilized powder for injection: USFDA confirmed that drug was not withdrawn due to safety issues, this decision will allow US FDA to approve ANDA's for the innovator's (Novartis) discontinued product (in May, 2003).
