SUBJECT : RULES AND REGULATIONS ON

REGISTRATION OF VETERINARY DRUGS

AND PRODUCTS

Pursuant to R.A. No. 3720, as amended by Executive Order No. 175 otherwise

known as the “Foods, Drugs and Devices, and Cosmetics, R.A. No. 6675, otherwise

known as the “Generics Act of 1988” R.A. 1556, biologics and medicinal preparations

subject to the approval of the Secretary of Agriculture and Natural Resources to

promulgate regulations for the preparation, sale, traffic in, shipment and importation of

viruses, sera, toxins, or analogous products used for the treatment of domestic animals,

the following requirements for the registration of veterinary drugs and products are

hereby promulgated for the information, guidance and compliance of all concerned:

Section 1. DEFINITION OF TERMS:

For purposes of these Rules and Regulations, the following definitions are

adopted:

1.1 “Registration” refers to the process of approval for the manufacture, importation,

exportation, sale, offer for sale, distribution, labeling, advertising or transfer of

veterinary drugs and products obtaining active ingredients(s) known chemical

structures and properties determined to be safe, efficacious, and of good quality

according to standards of Bureau of Food and Drugs (BFAD)/Bureau of Animal

Industry (BAI).

1.2 “Veterinary Drugs and Products” refer to any substance, including biological

products, applied or administered to food producing, companion, aquatic, laboratory

and exotic animals, whether used for therapeutic, prophylactic or diagnostic purposes

or for modification of physiological functions or behaviors.

1.3 “Veterinary Drug for General Use” refers to a veterinary drug approved for sale

for animal use without restriction other than the usual.

1.4 “Veterinary Drug for Restricted Use” refers to a veterinary drug approved for

sale for animal use under certain conditions.

Section 2. GENERAL STANDARDS

2.1 Establishments applying to register a veterinary drug and product are required to

fully disclose all pertinent documentation and information regarding the veterinary

drug and product. Failure to fully disclose material information about the veterinary

drug and product is a ground for disapproval of registration application and one of the

bases for withdrawal of the establishment’s license to operate.

2.2 Action on registration application shall be based on the complete set of

specification of the veterinary drug and product proposed to appear on the label, i.e.

formulation, dosage form, strength, therapeutic indications and manufacturer. Any

change in any of the above specification shall require a new registration.

2.3 Action on registration application shall include the classification of the veterinary

drugs and products among each of the classification categories defined in Section 3

below. Any change in classification shall require a new registration. However, any

change in the name of the same manufacturer shall require proper notification of

BFAD/BAI.

2.4 The standards of veterinary drug and product registration as well as the methods of

evaluation are subject to revisions. Any major change shall be made after proper

consultation with the parties concerned. Revised standards and evaluation methods

shall be made applicable to all covered veterinary drugs and products as appropriate.

2.5 Only establishments with valid license to operate required under joint

Administrative Orders No. 100, Department of Agriculture and No. 138, Department of

Health, series 1990 can apply to register veterinary drug and products.

Section 3. CLASSIFICATION

All veterinary drugs and products shall be evaluated and registered on the basis

of specific requirements and standards pertinent to the classification of such veterinary

drugs and products. All registered veterinary drugs and products shall be classified in

terms of each of the following categories.

3.1 Number of Active Ingredients

3.1.1 Single Active Ingredients

3.1.2 Fixed-dose combination of two or more active ingredients

3.2 Available scientific and product’s evidence and experience on the

veterinary

drug use

3.2.1 “Investigational Veterinary Drugs and Products” refer to any new chemical or

structural modification of Tried and Tested or Established Veterinary Drug and Product

proposed to be used for a specific therapeutic indication. Investigational veterinary

drug and product need further clinical pharmacology studies (Phase I, II, or III) to

determine their safety and efficacy, and meet the requirements of new veterinary drugs

and products.

3.2.2 “New Veterinary Drug and Product” refer to any new chemical or structural

modification of Tried and Tested or Established Veterinary Drugs and Products

proposed to be used for a specific therapeutic indication, which have undergone

adequate clinical pharmacology Phase I, II, and III studies but which need further

Phase IV Clinical Pharmacology studies before they can be given regular registration.

3.2.3 “Tried and Tested Veterinary Drugs and Products” refers to any veterinary drug

and product which have been used for at least five (5) years.

3.2.4 “Established Veterinary Drug and Product” refers to veterinary drug and product

the safety and efficacy of which have been demonstrated through long years of general

use and can be found in current official USP-NF, and other internationally-recognized

pharmacopeias.

3.2.5 “Pharmaceutical or Therapeutic Innovation of Tried and Tested or Established

Veterinary Drug and Product” includes any or all the following:

3.2.5.1 An innovation involving use for new indication(s)

3.2.5.2 An innovation involving a new mode of administration

Veterinary Drug Formulary (See joint A.O. DOH-No. 100 and DA-No. 138 s. 1990)

3.4 Source or circumstance of veterinary drug and product production

3.4.1 Imported as finished

3.4.2 Locally-manufactured from imported materials

3.4.3 Locally-manufactured from local materials

3.5 Brand identification and patent protection of the veterinary drug and product

3.5.1 Brand and patented

3.5.2 Branded and off-patent

3.5.3 Unbranded and off-patent (generic veterinary drug and product)

3.6 Prescribing and dispensing regulations applicable

3.6.1 Over-the-counter (OTC) Veterinary Drugs and Products or Non-prescription

Veterinary Drugs and Products or

product shall file an application under oath. The application shall be in a form

promulgated by BFAD/BAI and supported by the documents and requirements listed in

Annex C.

4.2 Evaluation by Review of Submitted Data

BFAD/BAI evaluates the submitted data. First, it determines if the data

presented are complete. If not complete, applicant is requested to submit additional

data or undertake needed animal or clinical studies. Second, it determines if on the

basis of data submitted, veterinary drug and product meet current BFAD/BAI standards

for quality, purity, safety, efficacy, potency or therapeutic value.

4.3 Evaluation by Testing of Submitted Samples

BFAD/BAI evaluates submitted samples of veterinary drug and product. The

evaluation shall cover physical, chemical and biological tests for quality, purity, safety,

potency or efficacy.

4.4 Assessment of Findings

At any point during the evaluation, BFAD/BAI may conclude that the

veterinary drug and product do not meet the standards of quality, safety, potency,

purity, efficacy and therapeutic value. In such case, the application shall be denied. At

the end of the evaluation, BFAD/BAI shall arrive at a recommendation regarding

action on the registration application.

4.5 Action on Registration Application

BFAD/BAI action on the registration application consists of the following

possible courses:

4.5.1 Disapproval of application for failure to meet standards of quality, safety,

potency, efficacy, purity or therapeutic value.
