Wilbur Ellis Co is recalling approximately 1,950 pounds of Messerle & Sons Dewormer Mineral (fenbendazole) because the drug concentration exceeds the acceptable limits allowed for the product. This Type B medicated mineral premix, sold in 50 lb bags, was distributed in Oregon and bears an expiration date of September 2014. Using a dewormer with an excessively high concentration of active medication can lead to potential health risks for the animals consuming it. If you have this product, you should stop using it immediately and consult with a veterinarian regarding any animals that have already consumed it.
The product contains levels of the drug fenbendazole that exceed safety standards, which may lead to toxic effects or adverse health reactions in livestock. While no specific animal illnesses were reported, the excessive drug concentration poses a risk of over-medication.
