Just read in this quarter's ADGA News and Events, that starting January 1, 2016 the FDA will make all antibiotics formerly available over the counter and make them prescription. This includes penicillin, tetracycline, stuff like Albon and Sulmet and udder infusions like Today and Tomorrow. It is not suppose to include deconquinate or rumensin as that is in medicated feeds for controlling coccidia.
Has anyone heard about this? I could say useless things like I'm LIVID, but that would lead to rants regarding the intrusion of the government into daily life, and frankly I can take better care of myself and my livestock than some bureaucrat sitting in Washington who doesn't know chicken droppings about me.
How much do you want to be it is another overreach trying to prevent someone from getting something that could be used for something else just like cold medication where you have to go ask the pharmacist for the box that has more than 10 capsule just incase you wanted to make Meth, or you can't get real Pyrex because someone might use it to cook up Meth. I'm sick of being punished for what someone else does.
I guess I'm stocking up on what I use now... just think you will now have to depend on your Vet for your antibiotics. Nanny State, Mother may I.
(gee, do you think I am ticked off, or what?)
