FDA · Structured Product Labeling

SPL, done right — XML to ESG.

Structured Product Labeling is the FDA-adopted HL7 XML standard for drug labeling. We author, validate and submit SPLs that keep your product information clear, consistent and audit-ready — and we bridge them to the EU ePI FHIR standard.

SPL Authoring

Content of Labeling (PI), Carton/Container labels and Patient Package Inserts authored to the latest FDA SPL Implementation Guide — R4 and R5 ready.

Drug Listing & Establishment Registration

Initial and updated drug listings, establishment registration, NDC labeler code reservation and annual reporting via FDA SPL.

Validation

SPL validator runs, schematron and FDA business-rule checks. Zero-error packages before they touch the ESG.

ESG Gateway Submission

Secure transmission of SPL submissions through the FDA Electronic Submissions Gateway with full receipt/acknowledgement tracking.

Lifecycle Messages

Blanket No Change Certifications, NDC reservation updates, label changes, withdrawals — every required SPL lifecycle message handled.

SPL ↔ FHIR Bridge

Mapping SPL XML to the EU ePI HL7 FHIR Common Standard, so the same approved labeling powers both US and EU electronic product information.
