ingredient, "established name" means either of the following:
(a) The name designated pursuant to Section 508 of the federal act
(21 U.S.C. Sec. 358).
(b) If there is no such name and the drug or ingredient is an
article recognized in an official compendium, then the official title
in the compendium is the established name.
If neither subdivision (a) or (b) of this section applies, the
common or usual name, if any, of the drug or of the ingredient is the
established name. When an article is recognized in the United States
Pharmacopoeia and in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia under different
official titles, the official title used in the United States
Pharmacopoeia shall apply unless it is labeled and offered for sale
as a homeopathic drug. If it is labeled and offered for sale as a
homeopathic drug, the official title used in the Homeopathic
Pharmacopoeia shall apply.

111230. Any drug represented in its labeling or advertisement as an
antiseptic shall be considered to be represented as a germicide,
except in the case of a drug that is purported to be or represented
as, an antiseptic for inhibitory use as a wet dressing, ointment,
dusting powder, or other use involving prolonged contact with the
body.

111235. Whenever a drug is recognized in both the United States
Pharmacopoeia and the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States,
it shall be subject to the requirements of the United States
Pharmacopoeia unless it is labeled and offered for sale as a

homeopathic drug, it shall be subject to the provisions of the
Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States and not to those of
the United States Pharmacopoeia.

111240. Any added poisonous or deleterious substance, or color

devices, that shall be designed to provide reasonable assurance of
safe and effective performance and, where appropriate, requiring the
use and prescribing the form and content of labeling for the proper
installation, maintenance, operation, or use of the device. However,
if a performance standard is established for a device pursuant to
Section 514 of the federal act (21 U.S.C. Sec. 360d) or Section 521
of the federal act (21 U.S.C. Sec. 360k), it shall be the performance
standard of this state for device.
