What does Animal Medicines Australia do?

Animal Medicines Australia (AMA) is the peak industry body representing leading animal health companies in Australia. It acts as the collective voice for major manufacturers, formulators, and registrants of veterinary medicines across various animal sectors. AMA member companies are local divisions of global innovators in animal health science, contributing to over 90% of all animal health product sales in Australia. AMA members offer a wide range of veterinary medicines, including parasiticides, antimicrobials, and pain relief medications. These products are designed to protect the health and welfare of livestock, equine, and companion animals, while also preventing zoonotic diseases and ensuring the availability of safe food and fiber from animals. The organization serves three primary customer segments: the livestock sector, the equine sector, and the companion animal sector, which collectively support the health and productivity of animals in Australia. All products are rigorously regulated by the Australian Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority to ensure their safety and efficacy.
