Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 2 costs, 1 mixed.
New dietary supplement listing rules
If enacted, the bill would require the responsible person (manufacturer, packer, distributor on the label, or a U.S. agent for foreign firms) to submit a detailed listing for every dietary supplement sold in the United States. For products on the market by January 1, 2027, listings would be due within 18 months after enactment and labels would need to show the product listing number starting two years after enactment. New products first sold across state lines after January 1, 2027, would need a listing and the listing number at the time they are introduced into interstate commerce. Listings would include the product name and electronic label copy, full ingredient lists and per‑serving amounts, servings per container, directions, warnings and allergen statements, product form, and any label claims. Proprietary blend per‑serving amounts must be submitted to the agency but would be designated confidential. The Secretary could require electronic submissions and must tell submitters whether a listing is complete.
Public supplement database and privacy
If enacted, the bill would require the Secretary to create a public, searchable online database within two years of enactment that shows most information submitted in product listings. The database would be searchable by the product listing number and by other non‑excluded listing fields. However, the public display would exclude responsible person contact details, U.S. agent contact details, and the per‑serving amounts of ingredients inside proprietary blends. The bill also limits public release of certain listing data under FOIA and clarifies that some business and facility details must remain private.
Reporting and enforcement for supplements
If enacted, responsible persons would have to notify the Secretary within one year after they stop selling a listed supplement across state lines. They would submit any label change to an existing listing when the changed product is first sold across state lines. If the Secretary requests, responsible persons must provide full business and facility addresses and the names and addresses of ingredient sources within five calendar days. Failing to file a required listing, update, or requested information could make the supplement legally misbranded and subject the responsible person or its U.S. agent to enforcement.
Funding to run the listing program
If enacted, the bill would authorize $7,872,984 for fiscal year 2026 and $6,615,000 for each year 2027 through 2030 for the Secretary to run the listing program, build the database, and hire staff. These are authorizations and would provide money only if Congress appropriates the funds.
