The veterinarian: Assumes the role of making medical
judgments for animals and owner Has sufficient access and knowledge of
the herd/animals Is responsible for providing continued
care
The owner/client/caretaker: Follows the veterinarian’s instructions Provides access and documentation
Veterinarian/Client/Patient Relationship (VCPR)
![Page 8: Certification Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56815e76550346895dccf74e/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

Key veterinary activities for a VCPR: Development of herd health plan to
include appropriate vaccination and treatment recommendations Direct use of pharmaceutical products Extra-Label Drug Use Appropriate vaccination use
Participate in record keeping Provide information and support in the
case of an adverse event Be available to address herd health
changes
Veterinarian/Client/Patient Relationship (VCPR)
![Page 9: Certification Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56815e76550346895dccf74e/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Federal Animal Medicinal Drug Use Clarification Act (AMDUCA) of 1994 Permits extra-label drug use by
veterinarian with a VCPR Risks are increased, extended withdrawal
times may be necessary Treatment records should be kept by the
producer for 1 year after the animal is treated
Does not include medicated feeds, including VFD feeds
Extra-label Drug Use - AMDUCA
![Page 10: Certification Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56815e76550346895dccf74e/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
Examples of extra-label use include:1. Increasing the dosage2. Changing the frequency or route of
administration3. Changing the duration of treatment4. Treating a disease or condition not on the
label5. Changing species or life stage on the
label
Extra-label Drug Use - Situations
![Page 11: Certification Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56815e76550346895dccf74e/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
What is required of producers for extra-label use of medications? An established VCPR for the herd must
exist Records showing the instructions from
the veterinarian directing the extra-label drug use
Documentation in the treatment records showing the application of the veterinarian’s instructions
Extra-label Drug Use – Keys to Remember
![Page 12: Certification Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56815e76550346895dccf74e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Animal Drug Distribution Methods Over-The-Counter (OTC) Prescription (Rx) Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD)
Distribution and Use of Approved Animal Drugs
![Page 13: Certification Training](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081502/56815e76550346895dccf74e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
Compounding is the mixing of two or more FDA-approved drugs
Withdrawal times are difficult to estimate AMDUCA also allows a veterinarian with
a VCPR to compound drugs for the client Veterinarian assumes responsibility for
safety, efficacy and withdrawal time of compounded drug
Producers and distributers of animal health product may NOT compound drugs
Issues with Compounding Drugs

14
Residue Avoidance – follow all label instructions on withdrawal periods and dosage.
If the residue status of an animal or group is in doubt, conduct a residue test.
This may be due to: ID tags or markings missing Accidental animal access to medicated
feed Lost or damaged records
Be prepared with a service provider’s information and emergency response plan
Residue Avoidance and Testing
