Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica Inc. has recalled 198 units of Atgard C (dichlorvos) Swine Wormer, Type A Medicated Article, after an investigation revealed the firm was incorrectly averaging laboratory test results that fell outside of expected specifications. This medicated feed additive is sold in 8-lb. pails and contains 9.6% dichlorvos. Because the testing methods were improper, the actual potency or quality of the wormer in these specific batches cannot be guaranteed. Consumers should contact their veterinarian or pharmacist regarding the use of this product.
The manufacturer used incorrect data averaging during quality investigations, meaning some product batches may not meet required potency or safety standards. This could result in ineffective treatment for swine or potential health risks to the animals due to incorrect dosing levels.
Contact healthcare provider or pharmacist for guidance.
