CVM GFI #231 Distributor Labeling for New Animal Drugs

FinalCenter for Veterinary Medicine04/20/2016

Description

'Distributor labeling’ refers to the labeling of an approved new animal drug marketed by a distributor who distributes the product under its own labeling rather than the approved labeling. Unlike the approved labeling, which CVM reviews as part of NADA/ANADA approval process to ensure the safe and effective use of the drug and compliance with the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) and its implementing regulations, distributor labeling does not ordinarily go through a pre-market approval process.
