Abstract
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal drug regulations concerning antibiotic, nitrofuran, and sulfonamide drugs in the feed of animals. The entry for type A medicated article oxytetracycline and neomycin is amended to reflect that the sponsor of the product is Pfizer, Inc., not Hoffman-La Roche, Inc. Also, the entry for use of type A medicated article oxytetracycline and neomycin base for type C turkey feeds, when used as an aid in reducing mortality in birds which have suffered an attack of air-sacculitis, is amended to change the neomycin use level from 35 to 100 grams (g) of neomycin base per ton of feed to 35 to 105 g/ton.
