GACT [Group-Approved Circular Text and Model Text] produced for veterinary products

These typescript handouts were centrally approved, and contain "statements which the company considers can be definitely substantiated [related to the product concerned]. It defines the maximum indications which can be claimed for a product and the minimum contra-indications, adverse reactions and warnings which must be applied for a product." They were the basis for publicity and marketing as well as packaging material for new or revised products.

The following products are covered by the GACT sheets in this set:

Wellcome Pig-Bel Vaccine *

Wellcome Swine Erysipelas Vaccine

Tribrissen 40% powder

* - this product was actually for human rather than animal use, but the GACT sheet for it is catalogued here as it is part of the one set. GACT sheets were coloured in green type on the front for veterinary products, and blue for those products for human use.
