Ceva Animal Health found in breach of NOAH code
NOAH has regulated the content and quality of advertisements, leaflets and promotional activities through its Code of Practice since 1974.
Promotion found to be inconsistent with SPC

NOAH’s code of practice committee has found Ceva Animal Health to be in breach of its code on promotion.

The committee ruled that the PRID® Delta Brochure PR152-L246-0615-1K and its use at the British Cattle Veterinary Association Congress in October last year, was in breach of clause 4.4 (iv) of the Code of Practice.

Clause 4.4 (iv) states that: “Any information or claim in a Promotion of Animal Medicines must not be inconsistent with the SPC”.

The brochure was found to promote off-label use of the product which is inconsistent with the summary of product characteristics (SPC).

NOAH represents the UK animal medicines industry which has regulated the content and quality of advertisements, leaflets and promotional activities through its Code of Practice since 1974.

Further details of the ruling will be made available shortly.

BSAVA publishes Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice

The BSAVA has added a small animal nutrition advice booklet to its series of BSAVA guides.

The BSAVA Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice offers a resource for veterinary professionals to provide appropriate nutrition for animals. As well as maintaining the wellbeing of healthy pets, the guide explores how nutritional requirements change in times of illness and disease.

The guide is divided into five sections, which explore the importance of nutritional assessment; diet types; feeding at different life stages; feeding for specific situations; and feeding for specific diseases. Online resources are also in the BSAVA Library including client handouts and videos.

It is designed to be suitable for referencing, in-depth case planning and team training sessions.

The BSAVA Guide to Nutrition in Small Animal Practice can be purchased online from the BSAVA store.
