Importation of drugs

[gary]

Does anyone know what the FDA regs are on importing drugs for veterinary use?  I have recently read an article about a study done on FIV+ cats in Italy and they used the natural interferon alpha and found it to be much more effective than the recombinant version.  The study also referred to another test done with FeLV+ cats with similar results.  I was given a link to a company that imports the natural interferon and it is quite reasonably priced at a box of five, 3 million unit vials for $350.  The companies rep is not aware of what FDA regs there might be for vet use.  You can import a 3 month supply for your personal use but I assume this requires you to fill out paperwork about your condition, etc., and probably a Rx.   Gary
