Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

This Order revokes and replaces the Medicines (Veterinary Drugs) (General Sale List) Order 1984 (S.I. 1984/768).

The Order specifies medicinal products, being veterinary drugs, which can with reasonable safety be sold or supplied otherwise than by or under the supervision of a pharmacist (the general sale list) (article 2 and Schedule). This differs from the previous Order in so far as the previous Order specified certain classes of veterinary drugs by reference to their composition.
