EFFAB joins EPRUMA
12 October 2022
We are very pleased to announce that EFFAB is a new member of EPRUMA.
EPRUMA facilitates and promotes a coordinated and integrated approach to the Responsible Use of Medicines in Animals. It is a multi-stakeholder platform working at the European level since 2005, to develop and promote best-practice frameworks for the responsible use of veterinary medicines to ensure better prevention and control of animal diseases. These principles can be tailored nationally to reflect specificities in the EU Member States.
“The principle of Responsible Use of medicines in animals is based on a holistic approach for managing animal health and welfare, and breeding plays an important role therein. Through scientific advances in animal genetics, farm animals can be bred for robustness and improved health, with greater disease resistance and consequently less need to use medicines,” said Ana Granados, Director of EFFAB.
