Proposed approval of peforelin and registration of the product Maprelin

The APVMA is considering an application for the approval of peforelin and registration of Maprelin. The product is to be used for induction of the oestrous cycle in sows after weaning, and for induction of oestrus in sexually mature gilts following therapy to inhibit the oestrous cycle with progestogens.

We invite comment from 9 August 2016 to 6 September 2016 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.
