Will Denegard be included in the antibiotic ban?
Will Denegard be included in the antibiotic ban?
I had a tough time finding a place that would sell Denagard without a prescription. I did eventually find a place but I can't remember who I ordered it from.
No.

I read that as "the ionophores (Rumensin, Bovatec, Catalyst), the bambermycins (Gainpro), bacitracin (BMD, Baciferm), and tiamulin (Denegard)" still available, but all other water and feed antibiotics will require a VFD or prescription. All injectables antibiotics, amprolium, and wormers (with the exception of hygromycin B) not affected.
Let me know if I got that wrong.

Are all antibiotics affected?
It is important to note not all antibiotics will be considered VFD drugs (Figure 1). The use of injectable antibiotics will not be affected. At this time, FDA has only moved antibiotics essential to human medicine and being fed to animals to VFD status. Also, as a part of the new FDA changes, water soluble antibiotics, which are important to human medicine, will now require a prescription from a veterinarian. This transition of water soluble drugs will include AureomycinWater Soluble Concentrate (Chlortetracycline).
Figure 1. Present listing of in and on feed antibiotics outside of VFD directive.*
Carbadox Ractopamine
Bambermycin Melengestrol
Ionophores (i.e. lasalocid and monensin) Decoquinate
Tiamulin Fenbendazole
Bacitracin Amprolium
*Unless used in combination with a VFD drug.

Just reading through all these old posts as about to use Denaguard for the first time. Thanks they're a help. Just a clarification question. What's the thought in eating eggs during/after a treatment and what length of time do people think you should treat for? 3 or 5 days? Thanks so much in advance! I have. It's who have always been healthy but with all the sudden weather changes recently the stress I think has allowed their bodies to give way to crd. They've never had antibiotic feed and I make them formented grains for food natural probiotics. They're still laying but I have a lot of sneezing, runny noses and one or two are gurgling when they breath. A lot are doing the open mouth breathing right now too. Appreciate any help In Advance.
