Proposed approval of triptorelin acetate and registration of the product Elanco Ovugel (Triptorelin Acetate) gel for intravaginal use in sows

The APVMA is considering an application for the approval of triptorelin acetate and registration of Elanco Ovugel (Triptorelin Acetate) gel for intravaginal use in sows. The product is to be used for synchronisation of time of insemination in weaned sows to facilitate a single fixed time artificial insemination.

We invite written comment on the proposed approval of triptorelin acetate and registration of the product Elanco Ovugel (Triptorelin Acetate) gel for intravaginal use in sows on whether the application for approval of the active constituent and/or registration of the product should be granted.

The APVMA is able to consider comments relating to the legislative grounds for registration, including:

• safety criteria
• efficacy criteria
• trade criteria.

For more information see APVMA Gazette notice (page 22) from 14 June 2016.
