"The BSAVA Awards are an important opportunity to recognise the inspiring work of our peers" - Krista Arnold

The BSAVA has announced the nominations are now open for the 2021 and 2022 BSAVA Awards.

“Why not take a few minutes to talk to your friends and colleagues and submit your online award nominations now. You can nominate more than one person and for more than one award but you cannot nominate yourself.”

New form for online veterinary medicines retailers

The Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD) has produced a new online form for retailers wishing to sell veterinary medicines on the internet.

The form replace the previous Word version and is part of the VMD's ongoing commitment to digitise its processes. Anyone retailing prescription medicines online, including POM-V, POM-VPS and NFA-VPS categories, is lawfully required to register with the VMD before trading.

The change only applies to new applicants. Retailers already listed on the VMD's Register of Online Retailers or registered under the Accredited Internet Retailer Scheme (AIRS) do not need to do anything.
