Animal Drug Amendments placed all regulation of new animal drugs under one section of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

In 1968, Animal Drug Amendments placed all regulation of new animal drugs under one section of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act-Section 512. The purpose was to consolidate into one place in the law all of the principal provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act which relate to premarketing clearance of new drugs for administration to animals, either directly or in their feed and water.
