This report provides expert interpretation of the latest changes in EU risk assessment legislation for veterinary products and what it will mean for the animal health industry. The report examines industry reactions to environmental issues such as PEC calculations, ecotoxicity testing, and 'problem products'. It also compares animal health legislation in the US and EU and investigates the implications of global harmonisation on the industry.

Environmental Risk Assessment of Veterinary Medicines discusses:

• how environmental legislation has affected the industry
• which products have been banned and why
• the effects of legislation on R&D investment patterns
• the cost of complying to new environmental regulations
• industry views on new legislation

The report also examines further legislation likely to be introduced in the future and discusses the progress of the Veterinary International Co-operation on Harmonisation.
