Information and Requirements for Review and Approval

Information and Requirements for Review and Approval

As mandated by the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, a new animal drug may not be sold in interstate commerce unless it is the subject of a New Animal Drug Application (NADA).

What does an approved NADA mean? It means the product is safe and effective for its intended use and that the methods, facilities and controls used for the manufacturing, processing and packaging of the drug are adequate to preserve its identity, strength, quality and purity.


Veterinary Drug Approval Process

  • The veterinary drug approval process consists of a series of consultative procedures and reviews. This page lists the regulations, guidance documents, instructions and forms necessary for the submission of an application.

  • A detailed explanation is given in a PowerPoint presentation titled Overview of the Animal Drug Approval Process by Steven D. Vaughn, D.V.M., former Director, Division of Therapeutic Drugs for Food Animals, and now Director, Office of New Animal Drug Evaluation.

  • CVM has entered into a formal collaboration to identify and address problems regarding the quality of new animal drug applications submitted by sponsors to FDA for review. The overall purpose of this collaboration is to improve communications between CVM and the animal drug sponsor and help drug sponsors better understand regulatory considerations resulting in their developing a quality animal drug submission. Please see the abstract for the CRADA for more information.

  • Information on the review and approval process for generic animal drugs can be found on the Generic Animal Drug and Patent Term Restoration Act (GADPTRA) page.

  • Information on the review and approval process for drugs for minor species and/or minor uses can be found on the Minor Uses/Minor Species (MUMS) page.
