Co-Alliance LLP: Bulk Custom Swine Feed Recalled Due to Unapproved Lasalocid Contamination

Agency Publication Date: May 11, 2016

Summary

Co-Alliance is recalling approximately 30,580 tons of bulk custom ordered swine feed manufactured at their facilities in LaCrosse, Reynolds, and Flora, Indiana. The recall was initiated because the feed contains grease that was an industrial waste by-product from the manufacturing of Lasalocid, a medication that is not approved for use in swine feed. The affected products were produced and distributed to customers in Indiana, Michigan, and Illinois between July 1, 2014, and September 19, 2014.

Risk

Lasalocid is not approved for use in swine. The use of industrial waste grease containing this substance in animal feed poses a serious health risk to swine, potentially leading to toxicity or other adverse health conditions.
