Section C—Veterinary Feed Directive Final Rule Implementation
The following questions ask about the implementation of U.S. Food and Drug Administration Drug Guidance for
Industry (GFI) #213 and the revised Veterinary Food Directive (VFD) final rule on January 1, 2017. We want to better
understand the impact of the label changes on producers like yourself, and this is your opportunity to share about your
experience implementing the label changes on this feedlot.
1. Some antibiotics used on feedlots now require a VFD; these are called
medically important. Examples of antibiotics that DO require a VFD include
chlortetracycline and tylosin. Antibiotics that DO NOT require a VFD are
ionophores, (e.g., Rumensin®), bambermycin, and bacitracin; these are
called non-medically important.

1 Yes 3 No

Prior to the label changes resulting from the implementation of the revised
VFD final rule on January 1, 2017, did you medically important antibiotics in
feed on this feedlot?
[If Question 1 = No, SKIP to Section D]
2. Following the label changes, did this feedlot stop using medically important
antibiotics in feed, in other words in-feed antibiotics that now require a VFD?
