Abstract:
In 2012, three active pharmaceutical ingredients were released on the German market for small animals. These are the anti-thyroid Carbimazole (Vidalta®), the opium-derived analgesic Fentanyl (Fentadon®) and the antiepileptic Potassium Bromide (Libromide®). One substance was authorized for an additional species. The insecticide Flumethrin in combination with Imidacloprid is now also authorized for use in cats. Furthermore, this preparation includes an interesting new pharmaceutical form for dogs and cats and a new combination of active pharmaceutical ingredients for dogs. In addition, three active pharmaceutical ingredients with approval for use in human medicine, which are of potential interest to veterinary medicine, entered the market in 2012. These are the antidiabetic Dapagliflozin, the antiepileptic Perampanel and the Somatostatin-analog Pasireotide.
