Marketing exclusivity and patent information may be accessed in FDA's publication, Approved Animal Drug Products Online (Green Book) at: http://www.fda.gov/AnimalVeterinary/Products/ApprovedAnimalDrugProducts/default.htm.
Also, the regulations are being amended to reflect the previous approval of revised food safety warnings for ceftiofur sodium powder for injection. This amendment is being made to improve the accuracy of the regulations.
