On occasion products can or can be suspected to cause an Adverse Reaction. The adverse reaction reporting scheme is run by the VMD and is used to collect information from veterinary professionals and the general public on suspected adverse reactions to veterinary medicines. The VMD collect reports on both licensed and unlicensed veterinary medicines, and human medicines used to treat animals. The information that you provide can help to improve the safe and effective use of veterinary medicines. If any product that you have purchased through us has caused a suspected adverse reaction please notify us immediately. Our team of vets will work with you to support your flock or herd and also report the issues seen.
Where possible, although not essential,it helps it you have the product (or what is left), its packaging or the package leaflet that came with it with you when you fill out this report. Your report can be submitted without any additional information, but if you are able to provide further details, these can be added in the final section of the report.
All suspected adverse events should be reported to the VMD using form MLA 252A – more commonly known as the ‘yellow form’. You must use this form,which can be downloaded from the VMD website, when a suspected adverse reaction is observed in animals or humans during or after the use of a veterinary medicine. As always, our team will help with this and also offer full care to your stock to ensure their wellbeing is front and centre.
