> Feds Extend Minor Species Drug Index Comment Period
>
>The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has extended its deadline for
>comments on its proposed regulations for implementing the "Index of
>Legally Marketed Unapproved New Animal Drugs for Minor Species" from
>Nov. 30 until Dec. 20. ... roughly 25 pages of proposed regulations.
>As of press time, no comments could be found.
>
>The index itself, authorized by the Minor Uses Minor Species Act of
>2004, would create a list of drugs that could be legally marketed for
>treatment of minor species, such as most pets, including reptiles,
>fish, birds and small mammals, other than dogs and cats.
>
>... these minor species drugs would not need to undergo safety and
>efficacy testing like drugs for major species. Rather, a requestor
>(drug maker) would obtain an FDA ruling on the eligibility of a drug to
>be indexed, based on requestor-provided information, including a list
>of ingredients, an overview of manufacturing processes, intended uses
>and species and an estimate of drug distribution if distributed...
