To view a Supplement Facts panel for any Formula, click the Label tab from the Formula screen on the Ribbon to bring up the default label.
NOTE: The program is designed to create and save more than one label per formula, if desired. For example, a formula that can be used for adults or children, depending on the dosage, may need both adult and child labels.
Default Supplement Facts Label
For a new formula, the default tabular label template will initially be displayed. By default, active ingredients and NLEA nutrient components (from active and inactive ingredients) will be displayed on the label, and Inactive ingredients will be listed on the ingredient statement. These assignments can be modified as needed.
Choosing Which Label to Use
The program provides two common label templates, tabular and linear, that can be customized to accommodate specific label needs. Other templates based on these formats can also be created by the user.
Tabular Label Template
The Tabular label is the most commonly used label type for supplement panels. When creating a new label the default label type will be the tabular version.
Linear Label Template
Generally, a linear label may be used if the product package is too small to accommodate a tabular label. According to the labeling regulations (CFR 101.9j13iiA), a linear label may be used "if the product has a total surface area available to bear labeling of less than 12 square inches, or if the product has a total surface area available to bear labeling of 40 or less square inches and the package shape or size cannot accommodate a standard vertical column or tabular display on any label panel. Nutrition information may be given in a linear fashion only if the label will not accommodate a tabular display."
