#### 7. Non-Clinical and Clinical Testing

The component materials of the accessory device container have been substantiated to each meet criteria for direct food and drug contact or additive respectively. The formulation components of the filled device solution have been substantiated to each meet their respective USP monograph criteria. Each of the finished devices undergoes testing to meet the stated USP monograph and container criteria.

Clinical testing is not necessary to show substantial equivalence for either safety or efficacy of intended use to the predicate devices as there are several various in vitro analytical methods (assay; fill uniformity; sterility; container integrity) and physical-chemical characteristics (solution properties; unit configuration) available which demonstrate this equivalence.

#### Summary Conclusions 8.

The subject devices:

### 0.45% and 0.9% Sodium Chloride Inhalation Solution, USP

as manufactured by Holopack International, LP of Columbia, SC claim substantial equivalence, with the same intended use, to several devices which were manufactured prior to 1976 or which have received market clearance through established equivalence.

These devices are designed to meet the current USP specifications. The device containers have embossed unit identification and shelf carton labeling so that label requirements are met.

Analytical testing to the stated specifications demonstrates that these devices will have comparable safety and efficacy in use.
