Welcome to the VBMA website!

The Veterinary Botanical Medicine Association is a group of veterinarians and herbalists dedicated to developing responsible herbal practice by encouraging research and education, strengthening industry relations, keeping herbal tradition alive as a valid information source, and increasing professional acceptance of herbal medicine for animals.

We hope you'll consider joining our organization and supporting our mission.  It's a wonderful experience getting to know like-minded folks, and the amount of information we share with each other is incredible.  Members have access to many services that we consider essential.  We do, however, open our events, seminars, and continuing education programs to anyone who is interested.

We encourage visitors to explore our site and contact us with any questions.  Those looking for animal care can click here to find VBMA Member Vets in the US, or click here for our list of VBMA International Members.

 
VBMA Endorses Quality Herbal Products
VBMA recognizes that the herbal product industry has faced quality control and regulatory challenges, and we recommend supporting those companies attempting to self regulate in a meaningful way.  Companies that manufacture 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.
