FAQs Patent Questions

Question:Is there a specific format in which patent information needs to be submitted to the FDA agency?

Answer:
As of August 18, 2003, patent information is required to be submitted on FDA form 3542a or FDA form 3542 depending on the approval status of the application. Form FDA 3542 is the only form that will be used for Orange Book publication.

Question:How can I view the patent images?

Answer:
The PTO Web Patent Full-Text Database includes the full text of all patents granted since 1976, and the patent number, issue date, and current US classification for all patents granted from 1790 through 1975. At the top of each text display page is a button marked "Images". Clicking on that button will display the full-page image of the first printed page of that particular patent, along with navigational tools allowing the viewing of all the other pages.

Question:Can I print a single page from the Electronic Official Gazette - Patents?

Answer:
Yes. The way that it is done depends on which browser you use.
