Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations to reflect approval of a new animal drug application (NADA) filed by Merck Research Laboratories, Division of Merck & Co., Inc. The NADA provides for use of eprinomectin on cattle for treatment and control of certain gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, cattle grubs, lice, mange mites, and flies. The regulations are also amended to provide for a tolerance for residues of the drug in milk and in edible tissues.
