New Animal Drugs for Use in Animal Feeds; Bacitracin; Nicarbazin; Oxytetracycline and Neomycin; Penicillin

Résumé

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect approval of four supplemental new animal drug applications (NADAs) filed by Phibro Animal Health. One supplemental NADA provides for the use of fixed-combination Type A medicated articles containing oxytetracycline and neomycin sulfate to formulate two-way fixed-combination drug Type B and Type C medicated feeds for chickens, turkeys, swine, cattle, and sheep. Two of the supplemental NADAs provide for the use of approved, single-ingredient Type A medicated articles containing nicarbazin and penicillin, with or without roxarsone, to formulate two-way or three-way combination drug Type C medicated feeds for broiler chickens. The fourth supplemental NADA provides for the use of approved, single-ingredient Type A medicated articles nicarbazin, bacitracin methylene disalicylate, and roxarsone to formulate three-way combination drug Type C medicated feeds for broiler chickens. These approvals reflect FDA's effectiveness conclusions which relied on the National Academy of Sciences/National Research Council (NAS/NRC) Drug Efficacy Study Group's evaluation of the effectiveness of these drugs when used
