Template:ATCvet code

ATCvet code QI08

The ATCvet code QI08 is a classification used in the Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System for veterinary medicinal products. This system is used to categorize immunologicals specifically designed for use in lagomorphs, which include animals such as rabbits and hares. The ATCvet system is an extension of the ATC code system, which is used for human medicines.

Classification

The QI08 code is part of the broader QI group, which encompasses all immunologicals for veterinary use. Within this group, QI08 is specifically designated for lagomorphs. The classification is further divided into subcategories based on the type of immunological product and its intended use.

QI08A: Rabbit

This subcategory includes immunologicals specifically formulated for rabbits. These products are used to prevent or treat diseases that commonly affect rabbits, such as myxomatosis and rabbit hemorrhagic disease.

Vaccines

Vaccines are a critical component of rabbit health management. They help protect against viral and bacterial infections that can be devastating to rabbit populations.

Diagnostic Kits

Diagnostic kits are used to detect the presence of specific pathogens in rabbit populations, aiding in the management and control of diseases.

QI08B: Hare

This subcategory includes immunologicals for hares. While less common than those for rabbits, these products are important for the health management of wild and captive hare populations.

Vaccines

Vaccines for hares are used to prevent diseases that can affect both wild and farmed hares, ensuring their health and survival.

Diagnostic Kits

Diagnostic kits for hares are used to monitor and control diseases in hare populations, particularly in areas where they are farmed or conserved.
