The device description and intended use focus on a gel formulation with milk proteins and enzymes for moisturizing the mouth, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
Yes
The device is indicated for the symptomatic relief of dry mouth (xerostomia), which can be caused by various medical conditions, medications, or treatments. It aims to replace the feel of missing saliva, moisturize, lubricate, and refresh the mouth, thereby alleviating symptoms and improving patient comfort. These actions align with the definition of a therapeutic device which is intended to treat or alleviate a condition.
No
The device is a moisturizing gel intended for symptomatic relief of dry mouth, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a gel supplied in an aluminum tube, indicating it is a physical product, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use of BioXtra® Moisturizing Gel is to provide symptomatic relief from dry mouth by temporarily substituting the feel of natural saliva. It is applied directly to the oral cavity to alleviate discomfort, difficulty swallowing, etc.
- Mechanism of Action: The device works by physically moisturizing and lubricating the mouth with its gel formulation containing milk proteins and salivary enzymes. It does not analyze or test any biological samples (like blood, urine, or saliva) to diagnose a condition or provide information about a patient's health status.
- Device Description: The description confirms it's a gel applied topically.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.
IVD devices are designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. BioXtra® Moisturizing Gel is used in vivo (within the body) for symptomatic relief.

Dear Ms. Murphy:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0115.
