Protection of veterinary medicine
Prescription mandates are not required
The misleadingly named “Fairness to Pet Owners Act” would force veterinarians to provide prescriptions for pets even if the customer does not want one and regardless of where the medication is available.
Veterinarians need access to compounding
In veterinary medicine, a drug compound is required to provide customized medications for specific patients with special needs that are not met by FDA-approved drugs.

Antimicrobial use and resistance
Antimicrobial agents must be used appropriately and responsibly. It’s called sensible use. This is critical to maintaining their effectiveness, protecting animal and public health, and ensuring safe food supplies. Veterinarians are leaders and responsible in maintaining the effectiveness of antimicrobials.
