FDA Update on VFDs Webinar Series
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently released a draft revised guidance for industry (GFI) #120 document called “Veterinary Feed Directive Regulation Questions and Answers.” The revised draft guidance adds 53 new VFD questions and responses — and revises 14 — covering a variety of topics. The FDA says that this document, when finalized, will aid in industry compliance with the VFD regulation and provides additional information to the VFD final rule in response to questions that have been submitted by interested parties since 2015.
In this two-part webinar series, Dr. Mike Apley, Dr. Chris Rademacher, Dr. Tyler Holck and Matt Frederking share their perspectives on the information in this document and the impact it may have on current and future VFD practices.
