The U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Center for Veterinary Medicine released its third annual report summarizing 2011 sales and distribution data of antimicrobial drugs approved for use in food-producing animals.

The Animal Drug User Fee Act (ADUFA), as amended in 2008, requires antimicrobial drug sponsors to annually report the amount of antimicrobial active ingredient in the drugs they sold or distributed for use in food-producing animals. ADUFA also requires that FDA provide public summaries of these sales and distribution data. The collected data helps FDA evaluate antimicrobial resistance trends and other issues relating to the safety and effectiveness of antimicrobial drugs approved for use in food-producing animals.
