The EU veterinary medicinal products (VMP) regulation
The Veterinary Medicinal Products Regulation (EU) 2019/6 is valid from 28 Jan. 2022.
It replaces Directive 2001/82/EC and Regulation (EC) 1234/2008 (as far as Tierarzneimittel (TAMs) are concerned) and complements Regulation (EC) 726/2004 (as far as TAMs are concerned).
The Veterinary Medicinal Products Regulation (EU) 2019/6 aims to harmonise and promote the internal market for veterinary medicinal products, reduce administrative burdens, support innovation, increase the availability of TAMs and strengthen the fight against antimicrobial resistance.
