The standard governs how licensed veterinarians issue prescriptions during animal-diagnosis activities. Key points: a veterinary prescription is a written document issued by a licensed veterinarian as the medication凭证 for an animal; it is valid only for the current consultation and on the day of issuance (max 3 days if extended). Prescription slips are in triplicate (three color options) in two sizes (210x148 mm small, 296x210 mm large) and contain three sections — 前记 (front note), 正文 (body), 后记 (back note). Prescriptions must be retained by the issuing/dispensing unit for at least two years. This is the prescribing-layer companion to the veterinary-drug regulatory topics already in this category.\n\n## Verified claims (C1 — exact substrings of first-hand Chinese official source)\n\n1. 中文原文：为加强兽医处方管理，规范兽医执业行为，根据《中华人民共和国动物防疫法》及《执业兽医管理办法》《动物诊疗机构管理办法》《兽用处方药和非处方药管理办法》，我部制定了《兽医处方格式及应用规范》，自发布之日起执行。\n2. 中文原文：凡与本规范不符的处方笺自 2017 年 1 月 1 日起不得使用。\n3. 中文原文：本规范所称兽医处方，是指执业兽医师在动物诊疗活动中开具的，作为动物用药凭证的文书。\n4. 中文原文：兽医处方限于当次诊疗结果用药，开具当日有效。特殊情况下需延长有效期的，由开具兽医处方的执业兽医师注明有效期限，但有效期最长不得超过 3 天。\n5. 中文原文：兽医处方笺一式三联，可以使用同一种颜色纸张，也可以使用三种不同颜色纸张。\n6. 中文原文：兽医处方笺分为两种规格，小规格为：长 210 mm 、宽 148 mm ；大规格为：长 296 mm 、宽 210 mm 。\n7. 中文原文：兽医处方笺内容包括前记、正文、后记三部分\n8. 中文原文：兽医处方由处方开具、兽药核发单位妥善保存二年以上。\n","sources":[],"tokens_estimated":302,"generated_at":null,"tip":"Use /api/v1/topics to discover more topics. /api/v1/nutrient for precise single-point queries. /api/v1/cross_compare for 2-3 standard comparisons."}
