BEVA Launches Healthy Mouth Campaign
BEVA has introduced a new campaign to help horse owners understand the possible problems and risks of diseases in the horse’s mouth, including dental diseases.

The BEVA Equine Healthy Mouth Campaign is the first in a series of planned educational initiatives that belong to the Association’s new Equine Health Project. This project aims to increase awareness of a broad range of important health and welfare issues affecting horses, ponies and donkeys.

Primarily focussed on informing horse owners, The BEVA Equine Healthy Mouth Campaign will also assist BEVA members with the practical delivery of oral and dental veterinary work. It supplements the three CPD courses already available to veterinary surgeons in the BEVA continuing education calendar, as well as the comprehensive dentistry programme included at BEVA Congress this year, to which members of the British Association of Equine Dental Technicians (BAEDT) have been invited.

The BEVA Equine Healthy Mouth Campaign is supported by downloadable educational resources for its members to inform horse owners as well as promotional materials to help vet practices raise awareness of the campaign. The information is available from the BEVA website: www.beva.org.uk

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.
