Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect approval of an abbreviated new animal drug application (ANADA) filed by The Upjohn Co. The ANADA provides for subcutaneous use of a generic spectinomycin sterile solution in turkey poults and newly-hatched chicks as an aid in the control of bacterial respiratory infections, airsacculitis, and mortality. The regulations are also amended to add a tolerance for spectinomycin residues in turkey tissues. EFFECTIVE DATE: June 19, 1996. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Melanie R. Berson, Center for Veterinary Medicine (HFV-135), Food and Drug Administration, 7500 Standish Pl., Rockville, MD 20855, 301-594-1643.
