ACTION: Final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is amending the animal
drug regulations to reflect approval of an abbreviated new animal drug
application (ANADA) filed by Phoenix Scientific, Inc. The ANADA
provides for use of sulfadimethoxine oral solution for chickens,
turkeys, and cattle for treatment of certain bacterial infections.
EFFECTIVE DATE: April 30, 1997.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Lonnie W. Luther, Center For
Veterinary Medicine (HFV-102), Food and Drug Administration, 7500

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Phoenix Scientific, Inc., 3915 South 48th
Street Ter., P.O. Box 6457, St. Joseph, MO 64506-0457, filed ANADA 200-
192, which provides for use of sulfadimethoxine 12.5 percent oral
solution for chickens, turkeys, and cattle. The oral solution is used
to make medicated drinking water for broiler and replacement chickens
for the treatment of outbreaks of coccidiosis, fowl cholera, and
infectious coryza; meat-producing turkeys for disease outbreaks of
coccidiosis and fowl cholera; dairy calves, dairy heifers, and beef
cattle (in drinking water and as a drench) for shipping fever complex,
bacterial pneumonia associated with Pasteurella spp. sensitive to
sulfadimethoxine, calf diphtheria and foot-rot associated with
Sphaerophorus necrophorus sensitive to sulfadimethoxine.
Approval of Phoenix's ANADA 200-192 for sulfadimethoxine oral
solution is as a generic copy of Pfizer's NADA 31-205 for
Albon (sulfadimethoxine) 12.5 percent concentrated solution.
The ANADA is approved as of March 24, 1997, and the regulations are
amended by revising 21 CFR 520.2220a(b) to
[[Page 23357]]
reflect the approval. The basis of approval is discussed in the freedom
of information summary.
In accordance with the freedom of information provisions of 21 CFR
part 20 and 514.11(e)(2)(ii), a summary of safety and effectiveness
data and information submitted to support approval of this application
may be seen in the Dockets Management Branch (HFA-305), Food and Drug
Administration, 12420 Parklawn Dr., rm. 1-23, Rockville, MD 20857,
between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
The agency has determined under 21 CFR 25.24(d)(1)(i) that this
action is of a type that does not individually or cumulatively have a
significant effect on the human environment. Therefore, neither an
environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement is
required.
