## 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 Alpharma Inc. The NADA provides for using approved bacitracin methylene disalicylate (BMD) and decoquinate Type A medicated articles to make Type C medicated broiler chicken feeds used for prevention of coccidiosis, and for increased rate of weight gain and improved feed efficiency.
