CHS Nutrition is recalling 809 bags of Safegard Hog Dewormer Medicated and 20 bags of Safeguard Beef Dewormer Mineral Medicated because they were manufactured using an expired batch of the active drug Fenbendazole. A total of 829 bags (50 lbs each) were distributed to retail locations in the Pacific Northwest. Using expired medication in livestock can result in reduced effectiveness of the treatment, potentially failing to control parasitic infections like lungworms and intestinal worms as intended.
The expired active ingredient, Fenbendazole, may have lost its potency, which means the dewormer could fail to treat or prevent internal parasites in swine and cattle. This poses a risk to animal health by leaving infections untreated and could potentially lead to the spread of parasites within a herd.
