Course Description:
The revised rule now requires producers to administer antibiotics with a marketing status through animal feed under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian to ensure the drugs are only being used when necessary to treat an infection in an animal.
The FDA final rule requires veterinary oversight in a way that allows for the flexibility needed to accommodate the diversity of circumstances that veterinarians encounter while ensuring such oversight is conducted in accordance with nationally consistent principles. This course is to give you better understanding what changes apply to you either as veterinarians, animal food producers or distributors.
The VFD won't change the farming world a great deal; however it will require some additional planning and subsequent record-keeping. The FDA established that use of medically important drug should limited :
- Are considered necessary for assuring animal health (i.e., medically important antibiotics should not be used to promote animal growth or to improve feed efficiency)
- And include veterinary oversight or consultation (i.e., medically important antibiotics should not be used in the feed or drinking water of food-producing animals without veterinary oversight or consultation)
What are the changes?
- Animal Producers will not be able to buy medically important antimicrobial over the counter (As of January 1, 2017)
- The use of medically important antimicrobial products will be permitted only when authorized by a veterinarian
- And in used in compliance with Veterinary Feed Directive (VFD) Rule
- Antimicrobial in feed helps with "growth promotion" or "feed efficiency" (Production claim) is no longer appearing in the label
Why these changes?
