What this bill does
H.R. 10336, the Dietary Supplement Innovation Act, would amend the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act's rules on "drug preclusion"—the provision that generally bars marketing a substance as a food or dietary supplement once it has been approved as a drug or has undergone public clinical drug trials. The bill rewrites the list of exceptions to this bar, adding new criteria such as whether the substance's use in food is meant to enhance food safety rather than produce therapeutic effects, and whether related clinical trials have been inactive for at least seven years or discontinued. It also creates a new process (Section 413A) directing the FDA to weigh factors like dosage, route of administration, and safety when deciding if a drug has been "added" to a food, and it makes FDA warning letters and similar agency statements on this issue immediately challengeable in court, with the government bearing the burden of proof. A related technical change is made to the definition of "dietary supplement."
The bill primarily affects dietary supplement manufacturers, ingredient developers, and the FDA, by changing how the agency determines whether a supplement ingredient is barred because of overlap with drug development, and by giving companies a clearer path to challenge FDA enforcement actions in court.
The bill was introduced on September 10, 2026, by Rep. Diana Harshbarger and referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. It has not yet been voted on, and would need committee action, House and Senate passage, and the President's signature to become law.
