Subject: [ferrethealth] new PZI information
To: ferret-l@LISTSERV.FERRETMAILINGLIST.ORG, fhl <ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com>
Dr. Jerry Murray gave this info to me in a private exchange and when
asked said that I could carry it to the FML (where the conversation
originated) and the FHL, so it will be handy for both in both archives
later.

> Idexx has a recombinant PZI insulin that should be approved
> by the FDA soon. They were hoping it would be approved this
> year, but hopefully by the spring of '09 it will be approved.
> Other countries (Canada, Australia, most of Europe) do not
> allow regular PZI to be imported there due to the beef part of
> PZI (ie fear of mad cow disease being imported). Thus Idexx
> is changing to a recombinanat PZI which works just as well
> but has no real beef in it. Idexx still has some stock of their
> regular PZI available, so no shortage of it yet.
