Ladies and Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-132171) filed by
Cardinal Health, Inc. (the Registrant) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
Commission) on March 2, 2006, and all exhibits filed thereto (the Registration
Statement).
Pursuant to Rule 477(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act), the
Registrant hereby respectfully requests that the Commission consent to the withdrawal of the
Registration Statement. There was no circulation of a preliminary prospectus, the Registration
Statement was not declared effective by the Commission and no securities were sold pursuant to the
Registration Statement.
The Registrant expects to file a registration statement on Form S-4 registering debt
securities that will be issued in exchange for debt securities issued in a private placement in
lieu of issuing the securities registered pursuant to the Registration Statement.
The Registrant requests that in accordance with Rule 457(p) under the Act that all fees paid
to the Commission in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement be credited for
future use.
If
