New Rules Concerning OTC Animal Medications

[Blue Sky]

Old news. Still bad news. Given the fda’s stellar performance on other issues recently I’d rather the current bureaucrats butt out.

Here's the list of medications moving to Rx.

Old news but, now implementing

Thank you @animalmom .... It didn't occur to me to check with online animal health suppliers for a list.... I don't order much online as my vet can often supply it at the same costs and up til now, our co-op has special "booking events" with different drug mfg's and all that come and offer specials for the event and I have gotten much of my stuff there that I don't get at the vet.
It is just going to be a PITA when you have an outbreak of pinkeye on the weekend or a calf with scours and it is Sat aft and need to get something in it asap..... and can't run to TSC to get a bottle.
My vet is not liking this either... but they will also drop ship drugs to us as they know our operation and he knows that I am not a big one on "drugs" unless they are really necessary.

It makes me wonder. I hate to go all tin foil hat but it seems between one thing and another our way of life is under siege.

You are not going "tin foil hat"... that is exactly what it is... more gov't control......

It’s not us small producers that overdose our animals anyway. But we are the ones being punished. Thanks a lot government a$$holes.

I noticed the ag survey was especially nosy this year. I’m waiting for the phone call since there are some questions I didn’t answer.
