SF 4173 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Veterinary products exemption from the prohibition on products containing PFAS provision

This bill exempts veterinary products from Minnesota's ban on products containing PFAS chemicals. It directly affects veterinarians, animal healthcare providers, and manufacturers of veterinary supplies by ensuring these products are not restricted under the state's PFAS prohibition. The key provision adds veterinary products to a list of exemptions alongside prosthetics, medical devices, and FDA-regulated items, recognizing that federal laws may govern their composition. This change allows veterinary products containing PFAS to remain legal for sale and use in Minnesota, provided they fall under existing federal oversight or medical device regulations.
