Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Bimeda, Inc. is recalling 2,152 bottles of Sustain III Calf Bolus (sulfamethazine, 8.02 g) because the product failed to meet dissolution specifications during stability testing. This means the medication may not dissolve properly in the calf's system, potentially leading to ineffective treatment of the animal. This recall affects Lot 13330447, which was distributed to veterinary and agricultural retailers in 10 states.

Risk

The medication does not break down at the required rate, which may prevent the animal from receiving the intended dose of sulfamethazine to treat infections. No incidents or injuries to livestock have been reported to date.
