EviBaN®

The word ‘nutraceutical’ is a combination of the words ‘nutrition’ and ‘pharmaceutical’. The term refers to a group of substances which are derived from food or feed. These substances have, in addition to their nutritional value, a beneficial effect on health and can be used in the prevention and treatment of (animal) diseases.

We see potential in the application of nutraceuticals to support and improve (animal) health. Especially in the current day and age in which the usage of antimicrobials in livestock is under great pressure, nutraceuticals can show their value. It is of significant importance that the beneficial effects of these substances are evidence based.

Pillars

Dopharma has defined scientific criteria* to which all of its EviBaN® products must comply. Furthermore, Dopharma’s vision regarding the production and use of nutraceuticals is based on the following four pillars:

Quality
Production and research in compliance with GMP, GMP+, GLP and GCP standards.

Support
Technical support by Dopharma’s veterinary team and commercial support by Dopharma’s marketing and sales teams.

Timing
Administration of EviBaN® products during the high-risk periods.

Focus
Focus on respiratory and gastrointestinal diseases in livestock.

In order to meet above demands, EviBaN® products are only available through the veterinary channel.

*Scientific criteria to which the EviBaN® products must comply according to Dopharma:
