USA - Voluntary 14-day withdrawal period for tetracycline, oxytetracycline & chlortetracycline products

Pork producers are being reminded to review their use of feed/water tetracycline-class antibiotics (tetracycline, oxytetracycline or chlortetracycline) to make sure their use meets standards set by some export markets for U.S. Pork.

All U.S. pork producers are required to adhere to animal health-product withdrawal standards that meet U.S. maximum residue limits. These standards were determined through science-based testing by the Food and Drug Administration to ensure the safety of all products entering the national food chain. However, some countries that purchase U.S. pork products may have withdrawal requirements that exceed those on the product label.
