Veterinary Products
Regulation (EU) 2019/6 provides standards for veterinary medical products (VMPs) in the European Union, ensuring the protection of human and animal health as well as the environment. Marketing authorisation requires submission of a data dossier with approved active substances.
The EU registration process ensures only products meeting rigorous standards and tested by independent experts enter the market. Applications must include all scientific documents demonstrating the VMP’s quality, safety, and efficacy.
Insect repellents and topical disinfectants for animals fall under the Biocidal Products Regulation rather than VMP regulations.
Maven scientists provide support for active substance companies across pharmaceuticals, veterinary products, and biocides, focusing on toxicological concerns of excipients, processing aids, and manufacturing impurities.
Animal Feeds
EU animal feed legislation applies to farmed livestock, pets, horses, farmed fish, zoo/circus animals, and wild animals. Feed additives require approval under Regulation (EC) No 1831/2003, with submissions demonstrating efficacy and safety for animals, humans, and the environment.
