On the 6th of February 2012 the European Commission adopted the
executive Decision C (2012) 772, based on the article 34 of the Directive
2001/82/CE of the European Parliament and of the Council about the
referral of veterinary medicines “FORTEKOR and associated names”,
which active ingredient is Benazepril hydrochloride.
The Decision implements the obligations of the Competent Authorities to
modify the Marketing Authorisation of these veterinary medicines based on
the scientific conclusions included on annex II, on the terms laid down on
annex III.
Based on this, the AEMPS recommends all the Marketing Authorisation
Holders of veterinary medicines containing Benazepril hydrochloride
different from ‘FORTEKOR’ and associated names, to present the
corresponding variations to adapt the Marketing Authorisation of their
veterinary medicines to what it is laid down on the Decision. The variation
that applies in accordance with the regulations in force (Guideline 2010/C
17/01) is C I.1.b, type IB.
