`animal_drug_search`

Pack: veterinary-fda · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/veterinary-fda/mcp

Search FDA-APPROVED animal drugs — the FDA Green Book (Animal Drugs @ FDA), the official list of approved new animal drug applications. Answers “what FDA-approved drugs contain carprofen”, “what drugs are approved for dogs”, “what is approved for osteoarthritis in dogs”, “what animal drugs does Zoetis market”, “which animal drugs have been withdrawn”. This is APPROVAL status, not adverse events (see vet_adverse_events) and not recalls (see vet_product_recalls). Pass free text via “query”, OR one or more of the structured filters — see the note on “query” for why they do not combine.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`query`	string	no	Free-text search across the Green Book, e.g. “carprofen”, “Rimadyl”, “flea”. Upstream ignores free text whenever a structured filter is also sent, so when you combine them this tool resolves “query” into active_ingredient (then brand_name) and reports which it used in query_resolved_to. For a precise combined search, pass the structured fields directly instead.
`active_ingredient`	string	no	Chemical active ingredient, e.g. “Carprofen”, “Meloxicam”, “Fluralaner”.
`species`	string	no	Species the drug is approved for, e.g. “Dogs”, “Cats”, “Horses”, “Cattle”. Upstream uses plurals.
`sponsor`	string	no	Sponsor/manufacturer, e.g. “Zoetis”, “Boehringer Ingelheim”, “Merck”.
`brand_name`	string	no	Proprietary/brand name, e.g. “Rimadyl”, “Metacam”.
`dose_form`	string	no	Dose form, e.g. “Caplet”, “Injectable Solution”, “Chewable Tablet”.
`route`	string	no	Route of administration, e.g. “Oral”, “Intravenous”, “Topical”.
`indication`	string	no	What the drug is approved to treat, e.g. “osteoarthritis”, “postoperative pain”, “heartworm”.
`application_number`	string	no	NADA/ANADA application number, e.g. “141053”.
`status`	string	no	Approval status: “Approved”, “Voluntary Withdrawn”, “Granted”, “Revoked” (or the raw code A/W/G/R).
`limit`	number	no	Rows per page (1-100, default 20).
`page`	number	no	Page number, 1-based (default 1).
