Summary We have attempted to provide an overview of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act as it pertains to animal drugs and feed additives. The Act requires that each new animal drug application or food additive petition contain sufficient data to prove that the drug or feed additive is safe and effective before the drug or feed additive can be marketed. It also gives the Secretary of Health, Education, and Welfare the power to remove from the market a previously accepted drug if it is shown to be unsafe or lacks effectiveness. The Bureau of Veterinary Medicine has prepared guidelines to aid applicants in compiling and submitting the necessary information for approval of drugs to be used in dairy cattle. A copy of these guidelines and a Drug Use Guide, which aids the dairymen to correctly use approved drugs, can be obtained from the Bureau. |
