Data source
This website gives access to web reports on adverse events related to veterinary medicinal products by product or substance name. Additional data outputs are line listings with links to individual case report forms.
All the data displayed in the web reports, line listings and individual case report forms is taken from EudraVigilance Veterinary, a database system designed for collecting reports of suspected adverse events, used for the ongoing monitoring of the benefits and risks of medicines following their authorisation in the European Economic Area (EEA).
The database contains adverse event reports related to all authorised veterinary medicines in the EU and having occurred in the EU; as well as outside the EU (for same or similar products).
Until January 2022, the legislation only required serious adverse events to be reported to EudraVigilance Veterinary, although some non-serious adverse events were reported voluntarily. Since Regulation (EU) 2019/6 became applicable, all suspected adverse events (serious and non-serious) need to be reported to EudraVigilance Veterinary by marketing authorisation holders and national veterinary medicine regulatory authorities. Therefore, users are advised to exercise caution when comparing data retrieved before and after January 2022.
Incidence figures are calculated based on volume of sales data submitted by Marketing Authorisation Holders on an annual basis into the Union Product Database.
For further information on the pharmacovigilance system in place for veterinary medicines in the EU, please refer to Pharmacovigilance guidance.
