ECO Animal Health Group plc, a leader in the development, registration and marketing of pharmaceutical products for global animal health markets, is pleased to announce that it has received a new U.S. and Canadian label claim indication for Aivlosin Water Soluble Granules in pigs.
Following years of research into the sow reproductive safety of Aivlosin WSG, a new 'sow safety' indication has been approved by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration FDA. Prior to this approval, the label indication restricted WSG to be used only in the drinking water of swine intended for slaughter and not for use in lactating or pregnant females, or males and females intended for breeding.
The new label indication will be 'For use only in the drinking water of swine intended for slaughter and female swine intended for breeding. Not for use in male swine intended for breeding.'
Meanwhile, the Veterinary Drugs Directorate in Canada has also approved the removal of label statements regarding 'not for use in lactating or pregnant females and females intended for breeding.'
"We are pleased to have received this new label claim approved by the FDA which gives permission for ECO to sell into an additional market segment," said David Halls, CEO. "This is testament to the continued market development of our products and these new claims and labels further enhance the safety message already used for Aivlosin in pigs."
