Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is issuing an order prohibiting the extralabel use of anti-influenza adamantane and neuraminidase inhibitor drugs in chickens, turkeys, and ducks. We are issuing this order based on evidence that extralabel use of these anti- influenza drugs in chickens, turkeys, and ducks will likely cause an adverse event in humans.
