Description
The mission statement for FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) reads, “Protecting Human and Animal Health.” To achieve this broad mission, CVM:
- Ensures animal drugs are safe and effective, properly made, and adequately labeled and packaged;
- Ensures that when food-producing animals, such as cattle and chickens, are treated with an animal drug, food made from those animals, such as meat, milk, and eggs, are safe for people to eat;
- Ensures that new animal food additives are safe and serve their intended function;
- Educates pet owners, animal producers, veterinarians, and the animal health industry about the products we regulate;
- Monitors the safety of all types of animal food for all types of animals;
- Monitors and investigates side effects and product quality problems that are reported for animal food, drugs, and devices (like thermometers and pacemakers) once they are sold on the market;
- Carries out research to support our policies and regulatory decisions about animal food, drugs, and devices;
- Works to make more animal drugs legally available for minor species, such as ferrets and fish; and for minor (infrequent and limited) uses in a major species, such as horses and dogs;
- Works to support and spur the development of new technologies and approaches that address health needs across human, animal and environmental health sectors; and
- Leads, coordinates, and manages CVM’s international activities in collaboration with relevant FDA Centers and Offices, as well as FDA’s international regulatory counterparts.
