The Animal Drug User Fee Act permits FDA to collect subsidies for the review of certain animal drug applications from sponsors
On Nov. 18, 2003, the U.S. Congress passed the Animal Drug User Fee Act (ADUFA) which permitted the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to collect subsidies for the review of certain animal drug applications from sponsors, analogous to laws passed for the evaluation of other products FDA regulates, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of drugs for animals and the safety of animals used as foodstuffs.
The ADUFA was originally signed into law in 2003 and reauthorized in 2008, 2013, 2018 and 2023.
