WHY
• ‘Veterinary Technician must understand why the diagnosis was made, why the surgery was performed, why the prognosis was rendered and why the treatment was prescribed’
• Independent: assess and monitor patients, implement therapeutic protocols, obtain and perform dx. Protocols
• “know and think” and ‘do’

Regulation of Drug Products• The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) became a
government agency to enforce the federal Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906– The Pure Food and Drug Act established standards for drug strength,
purity, and guidelines for drug labeling• Until the late 1930s, the FDA had little power to determine
and enforce correct drug dosage information• In 1938, Congress passed the federal Food, Drug, and
Cosmetic Act (FDCA), which required that a drug be adequately tested to demonstrate its safety when used as its label directs
• In 1972, the FDCA was amended to include many more protections

Regulation of Drug Products
• The FDA is headed by a commissioner and organized into a number of different centers
• The FDA’s Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) ensures that approved veterinary medicines will not harm animals
• The FDA-CVM prohibits the sale and use of a drug that would cause animals to suffer serious health problems
• The 1968 amendments to the FDCA made drug manufacturers specify drug withdrawal periods and detection methods for determining drug residues in animal foodstuffs
• Details: Figure 1-1
