Spanish Translations of Three Guidance for Industry Documents Related to VICH Posted on the CVM Website
The FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine (CVM) is actively involved in the international harmonization of requirements for the approval of veterinary drugs through participation in the International Cooperation on Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Registration of Veterinary Medicinal Products (VICH) (http://www.vichsec.org/). The finalized VICH guidelines have been implemented as CVM guidance documents and posted in the CVM website in English. CVM has recently posted on its website Spanish translations of three guidance for industry documents on safety studies for residues of veterinary drugs in human food at: http://www.fda.gov/cvm/CVMEspanol.htm. CVM intends to translate all finalized VICH guidelines as implemented by FDA to make the guidance documents more widely available.
