Anyone can report suspected adverse events in animals following the use of veterinary or human medicinal products.

Suspected adverse events in humans following exposure to veterinary medicinal products should also be reported. Veterinarians however are legally obliged to report suspected adverse events, as are anyone operating in the human health and welfare sector.
