GENERAL
This is not suitable for a submission as an ANDA. The drug Robaxin is unapproved. It's NDA is #011011 and was approved in 1957. This was prior to legislation which mandates a drug show efficacy (i.e. clinical investigations). This drug has no valid patent, and is a threat to the public health. Remove Robaxin, and all drugs which reference this from the market, as it has never proven efficacy.

Labeling attached.
