Process for Withdrawal of Approval of a New Animal Drug Application

The Center for Veterinary Medicine shall propose to withdraw approval of new animal drug applications (NADAs) based on findings regarding the safety or effectiveness of the drug product. CVM may also propose to withdraw approval of NADAs for deficiencies in required records, manufacturing, and labeling. However, the majority of withdrawal actions are voluntary requests by an application sponsor because the animal drug product is no longer manufactured or marketed. The applicable statutes, regulations, and policies for the withdrawal process are listed here.

Applicable Statutes, Regulations and Policies
