Aquaculture
CVM and Aquaculture

Aquaculture is becoming an increasingly important source of fish available for human consumption. As the number of aquaculture facilities grows, so does the need to develop safe and effective drugs for treating fish diseases. The FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) Office of New Animal Drug Evaluation (ONADE) is working with various government agencies and aquaculture associations to increase the number of safe and effective drugs that can be used by the aquaculture industry. It is also important to understand the effect these treatments have on non-target organisms and on the aquatic environment. As a result, CVM’s Office of Research (OR) has greatly expanded its commitment to aquaculture research .

This page lists the Guidance documents, sections of the Policy and Procedures Manual, research projects, and other information that are used in support of CVM's aquaculture program.
