In 2013, only one newly developed active pharmaceutical ingredient for horses and food-producing animals was released on the German market for veterinary drug products. The ionophore monensin from the group of polyether antibiotics is now available as an orally administered continuous release intraruminal device for cattle (Kexxtone(R)). Furthermore, two established veterinary active pharmaceutical ingredients are available for additional species: The antibiotic amoxicillin (Suramox(R)) is also authorized for ducks and turkeys and the dissociative anesthetic ketamine is now authorized for sheep, goats and dairy cattle. Additionally, one veterinary drug with a new pharmaceutical form as well as one product with a new strength have been launched on the market for veterinary drugs for horses and food producing animals.
