Veterinary Drug and Pet Food Regulation

Veterinary drug and pet food regulation ensures that medications for animals and pet food are safe, effective, and properly labeled. Governed by laws similar to those for human food and drugs, regulatory agencies evaluate products before they reach the market. This includes testing for safety, quality, and appropriate uses. The regulations aim to protect animal health and, indirectly, human health by preventing disease transmission and ensuring that pets receive nutritious, safe food. Manufacturers must adhere to strict standards to maintain consumer trust and animal welfare.
