FDA Animal Drug User Fee Act

The Animal Drug User Fee Act (ADUFA) is a law that allows the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to collect fees from animal drug manufacturers. These fees help speed up the review and approval process for new medications for animals, such as pets and livestock. By providing additional resources, the FDA can ensure that safe and effective treatments are available more quickly, benefiting animal health and public safety. Additionally, the act encourages innovation in veterinary medicine while maintaining strict regulatory standards.
