Most over-the-counter livestock antibiotic medications will no longer be available for purchase without a veterinary prescription starting June 11.
This is the final phase of the Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) guidance for industry No. 263 regarding livestock antibiotic labels. Since 2017, the FDA has been trying to bring all approved livestock antibiotics under veterinary oversight in an effort to combat antimicrobial resistance.
