Procedures for reporting veterinary medicinal product shortages

The issue of medicinal products supply shortages is a major topic for both animal and human health. In veterinary medicine, the holders or their representative (responsible for placing on the market) are obliged to report to Anses any risk of shortage of a veterinary medicinal product which could lead to a risk to human health, animal health or animal welfare.

ANSES at the 2024 Paris Agricultural Show!

The combined effects of climate disruption and human activities have created disturbances in the Earth’s ecosystems that are impacting the health of living organisms. Allergenic plants, mosquitoes and ticks have been spreading across France, affecting human and animal health. In forests, gardens and crops, plant pests and other harmful organisms are acclimatising rapidly. This year on the ANSES stand, we invite you to come take a closer look at these invasive species, so you can recognise them and protect yourself. Our programme for this year includes observation of living organisms, games and discussions with our scientists. And in a nod to this year's Olympic Games, ANSES will also provide an opportunity to learn while moving your body.
