Response to Veterinary medicines – list of essential substances for equine species

11 Feb 2025

The Federation of European Equine Veterinary Associations (FEEVA) and the Federation of Veterinarians of Europe (FVE) welcome the update of the list of substances that are essential for the treatment of equine species or provide added clinical benefit. We appreciate the efforts of the European Medicines Agency (EMA) in developing the scientific advice under Article 115(5) of Regulation (EU) 2019/6 on veterinary medicinal products, specifically regarding the list of substances essential for the treatment of equines with a six-month withdrawal period (EMA/CVMP/159047/2023-Corr.1) published on 18 July 2024. However, based on real-world clinical experience and further publications, we believe that some additional substances should be reconsidered for inclusion due to their added clinical benefits. Please see the document attached for details.
