Virtual Wednesday Round Table: Approved or Not? Navigating Devices, Compounding & Compliance

Use of medical devices and compounded preparations occurs in veterinary practice, but do you fully understand the regulatory landscape, liability exposure, and insurance coverage implications?

Obtain practical guidance that will help you identify approved animal drugs, distinguish compounded preparations from FDA-approved products, and determine whether a product meets the definition of a medical device. Discussion will also include common compliance pitfalls, documentation considerations, and how professional liability insurance may respond when questions arise about product status. You’ll leave with clear, actionable tools to help protect your patients, licenses, and practice.

Panelists comprise expertise in regulation, compliance, compounding and insurance: Stuart Brown, II, DVM; Cindy Burnsteel, DVM; Lauren Forsythe, PharmD, MBA, DICVP; and Ashley Morgan, DVM, CAE.

Successful completion of this session (2 hours) will grant 2 credit hours of RACE-accredited CE: one hour medical, one hour non-medical. Credit is available both attending live, or by viewing the on-demand recording and passing a quiz.

All 2026 VWRT sessions are sponsored by American Regent Animal Health.
