As with our company’s human health pharmaceuticals and vaccines, we test our investigative animal health pharmaceuticals and vaccines vigorously for safety, quality and efficacy before submitting them for approval. In addition, when used in food-producing animals, our submissions to regulatory agencies include rigorous human food safety testing as well as user safety and environmental safety assessments.
We support global harmonization of the regulatory process for veterinary medicinal products through participation in and dialogue with the International Cooperation on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Veterinary Medicinal Products (VICH) and the Codex Alimentarius Commission.
