Final answer:

The name of the business owner is not required on drug labels or packages as per the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act of 1966. Other information such as the business name, product identity, manufacturer's address, and quantity are mandated by law.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the Fair Packaging and Labeling Act of 1966, certain types of information are required on drug labels or packages, such as the name of the business, identity of the product, address of the manufacturer, and quantity of the product. However, the name of the business owner is not required to be listed on these labels or packages.

This legislation was enacted to help consumers make informed decisions, paralleling the requirements for food labels which also mandate the disclosure of nutritional information and the listing of ingredients, as stated by the Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 and further regulations under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act).
