Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

The Veterinary Pharmacy is recalling 820 units of Ivermectin Bio-bullets because they are unapproved new animal drugs. These products, which are administered to large livestock and distributed in 10-count clips, have not undergone the required safety and effectiveness reviews by the FDA. The recall affects customers who purchased these bio-bullets in Oklahoma, Texas, Louisiana, Kentucky, and Arkansas. Consumers should immediately stop using these products and consult a veterinarian for alternative treatment options and guidance on animal health.

Risk

Because these bio-bullets are unapproved, their safety, purity, and effectiveness have not been verified. Using unapproved animal drugs can result in unpredictable health consequences for the treated animals and may lack proper dosing instructions, posing a moderate risk to animal welfare.

What You Should Do

  1. Identify the product by checking the label for 'Ivermectin Bio-bullet' from The Veterinary Pharmacy Inc., based in Newcastle, OK.
  2. Confirm if you have the affected packaging, which consists of 10-count clips of bio-bullets designed for administration at a rate of one bullet per 500 lbs of bodyweight.
  3. Stop using these bio-bullets immediately and do not administer any remaining product to livestock.
  4. Contact your veterinarian to discuss alternative treatments and to monitor any animals that have already been treated with this unapproved drug.
  5. Contact The Veterinary Pharmacy or its successor, SolidTech Animal Health Inc., at 812 NE 24th St, Newcastle, OK 73065-6359, to arrange for the return of any unused product and to inquire about a refund.
