§ 585.170. Factors to be considered in determining whether label or advertisement is misleading
If an article is alleged to be misbranded because the labeling is misleading, or if
an advertisement is alleged to be false because it is misleading, then, in determining
whether the labeling or advertisement is misleading, there shall be taken into account,
among other things, not only representations made or suggested by statement, word,
design, device, sound or in any combination thereof, but also the extent to which
the labeling or advertisement fails to reveal facts material in the light of such
representations or material with respect to consequences which may result from the
use of the article to which the labeling or advertisement relates under the conditions
of use prescribed in the labeling or advertisement thereof or under such conditions
of use as are customary or usual.
