Regulation §558.311
WARNING STATEMENT REQUIRED: A withdrawal period has not been established for this product in pre-ruminating
cattle. Do not use in calves to be processed for veal.
CAUTION STATEMENT REQUIRED: The safety of Lasalocid for use in unapproved species has not been established.
Do not allow horses or other equines access to feeds containing Lasalocid as ingestion may
be fatal. For Type A articles or Type B feeds (cattle and sheep): Mix thoroughly with grain and/or
roughage prior to feeding. Feeding undiluted or mixing errors may result in an excess Lasalocid
concentration that could be fatal to cattle and sheep. In addition, inadequate mixing (recircu-
lation or agitation) of liquid Type B feed may result in an excess Lasalocid concentration that
could be fatal to cattle and sheep.
SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Type C cattle feeds may be manufactured from Lasalocid liquid Type B feeds which have
a pH of 4.0 to 8.0 and bear appropriate mixing directions as follows:
(1) For liquid Type B feeds stored in recirculating tank systems: Recirculate immediately
prior to use for no less than 10 minutes, moving not less than 1% of the tank contents per min-
ute from the bottom of the tank to the top. Recirculate daily as described even when not used.
(2) For liquid Type B feeds stored in mechanical, air or other agitation type tank systems:
Agitate immediately prior to use for not less than 10 minutes, creating a turbulence at the bot-
tom of the tank that is visible at the top. Agitate daily as described even when not used.
