What This Actor Does

This actor queries the openFDA animalandveterinary/event endpoint and returns flattened, analysis-ready records. Each record includes:

Animal details: species, breed, gender, age, weight
Drug information: brand name, active ingredients, dosage, route, manufacturer, ATC Vet code
Adverse reaction terms using VeDDRA (Veterinary Dictionary for Drug Regulatory Activities)
Outcome data: medical status and number of animals affected
Report metadata: FDA receive date, reporter type, seriousness flag

Nested drug[], reaction[], and outcome[] arrays are serialized as JSON strings so the dataset stays flat and easy to export to CSV or other tabular formats.

Use Cases

Veterinary pharmacovigilance: Track drug safety signals for specific compounds or drug classes
Pet food & product safety: Identify adverse events linked to specific products or manufacturers
Date-range incremental pulls: Schedule recurring runs to pull only new reports since your last extraction
Species-specific analysis: Scope to dogs, cats, horses, or cattle for targeted research
Legal & regulatory research: Identify adverse event patterns for class-action or regulatory work

Technical Notes

API: Uses the FDA openFDA public API — no API key required, no authentication, no captcha
Rate limit: 240 requests/minute without a key; the actor uses a 250ms delay to stay within limits
Pagination: skip+limit with a 25,000 skip hard cap per openFDA policy; use date windowing for larger backfills
Proxy: Direct connection (no proxy needed) — the FDA API is public and accessible from datacenter IPs
