Small Ruminant – Navigating VCPRs & the 2023 Antibiotic Accessibility Changes

Tuesday, March 28, 2023      7:30-8:30 pm (EST)
Dr. Tara Gaab,  University of Delaware

This summer the FDA GFI #263 officially takes effect, requiring a veterinary prescription to obtain any medically important antibiotic. Navigating these changes, particularly for producers who do not have a regular relationship with a veterinarian, may be challenging. This webinar will focus on tips, tricks, and things to keep in mind to help make this transition easier on both veterinarians and producers, while keeping the wellbeing of patients at the forefront.

Controlled Substance Registration (CSR) Mandatory Course

All practitioners who apply for a Delaware controlled substance registration (CSR) must complete a mandatory two-hour, two part course pertaining to safe prescribing and distributing of controlled substances, treatment of pain, and recognizing and treating opioid use disorder.  This two –part course is also the approved course for meeting the requirement for reviewing a practitioner’s CSR. Note that this is the ONLY approved course for meeting the CSR renewal requirement. Practitioners initially issued a CSR for a period less than two years do NOT need to repeat this course in that initial licensure period. All other CSR holders must complete this course to meet the two–hour continuing education requirement each renewal cycle.
