Animal health products refer to products specially used to prevent and treat animal diseases and protect animal health. Animal health products in China are divided into veterinary biological products, veterinary chemicals and Chinese veterinary drugs. Among them, animal vaccine and virus vaccine are the main biological products for animals; Antibacterials account for most of veterinary chemicals; Chinese veterinary drugs are divided into growth promoting drugs, antibacterial drugs and insect repellent drugs.

Compared with foreign developed countries, China's animal health care industry started late. Generally, it is divided into four stages: the first stage is the introduction period of 19 18-1979, the second stage is the initial growth period of 1980- 1987, and the third stage is1988-.

The proportion of veterinary biological products is increasing.

As China's aquaculture industry is dominated by edible animals, prevention is more important than treatment for the development of animal protection products, so the growth rate of veterinary biological products is faster than that of the whole veterinary drug industry, and the sales scale of veterinary biological products accounts for an increasing proportion of the industry, from 25.9% in 20 15 to 29. 1% in 20 19.
