FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine

The FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) is a branch of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration responsible for regulating animal health products. It ensures that medicines, vaccines, and feed additives for pets, livestock, and other animals are safe, effective, and properly labeled. CVM also oversees the safety of animal-derived foods consumed by humans, such as meat, milk, and eggs. Its goal is to protect public health, promote animal health, and support the agricultural industry by setting standards and reviewing new animal products before they reach the market.
