PGG/HSC Feed Company, LLC has recalled 60 bags (50 lbs each) of Start Right 18-30 MEC50 medicated pig feed. The recall was initiated because lab testing showed the level of the active drug ingredient, Carbadox, was only at 69% of what was claimed on the label, falling below the required specification of 75% to 125%. Because this is a medicated feed intended for starting swine, the incorrect dosage may result in ineffective treatment or prevention of the conditions the medication is intended to address. If you have this feed, you should stop using it and return it to your place of purchase for a refund.
The drug Carbadox is present at levels significantly lower than the required therapeutic dose, which can lead to inadequate disease control or prevention in young swine. This sub-therapeutic level of medication may result in poor animal health outcomes or the development of drug-resistant bacteria.
Return to the place of purchase for a full refund.
If you or a family member were harmed by this recalled product, you may have legal rights. Consider consulting a consumer protection attorney to understand your options for compensation.
