 VBMA Endorses Quality Herbal Products
 
  VBMA recognizes that the herbal product industry has faced quality control and regulatory challenges, and we support those companies attempting to self regulate in a meaningful way.  Companies manufacturing herbal products marketed for humans should be members of the American Herbal Products Association, an industry organization which explores issues, interacts with regulators, and establishes policy.  Veterinary product companies should be members of the National Animal Supplement Council, an organization which develops policies and procedures on adverse event reporting and quality control.  VBMA recommends supporting companies that are members of the AHPA and/or the NASC.
