No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components: a Control Unit, a Headset, Ear Plugs, and a Return Electrode Patch, in addition to accessories. This indicates it is a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is the administration of drug solutions, salts, or ions into the ear for medical purposes. This is a therapeutic or drug delivery function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description details a system for delivering substances into the ear using electric current. It doesn't mention analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a condition.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document doesn't mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples.
- Detecting or measuring substances in samples.
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
Therefore, the Iontophoresis System with Headset is a therapeutic or drug delivery device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Nanda:
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), as long as you comply with all of the Act's requirements relating to drugs labeled or promoted with the device as described below. 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 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.
Our substantially equivalent decision does not apply to the drugs that you will label or promote for use with your device. Therefore, you may neither label nor promote your device for use with specific drugs, nor package drugs with your device prior to FDA having approved the drugs for iontophoretic administration. For information on the requirements for marketing new drugs, you may contact:
Director Division of Drug Labeling Compliance (HFD-310) Center for Drug Evaluation and Research Food and Drug Administration 5600 Fishers Lane Rockville, Maryland
As you are aware, there are concerns relating to the fact that no drug is currently labeled for administration via an iontophoresis device. The Agency currently is evaluating this public health concern regarding the safety and effectiveness of this route of administration of drugs, and in the near future will inform manufacturers of certain additional steps the Agency believes are necessary to address this concern.
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.
