§ 558.330 Lubabegron.
(a) Specifications. Each pound of Type A medicated article contains 4.54 grams (10 grams per kilogram) of lubabegron as lubabegron fumarate.
(b) Sponsor. See No. 058198 in § 510.600(c) of this chapter.
(c) Related tolerances. See § 556.370 of this chapter.
(d) Conditions of use - (1) It is used in cattle feed as follows:
| Lubabegron fumarate in grams/ton | Combination in grams/ton | Indications for use | Limitations | Sponsor |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (i) 1.25 to 4.54 | Beef steers and heifers fed in confinement for slaughter: For reduction of ammonia gas emissions per pound of live weight and hot carcass weight during the last 14 to 91 days on feed | Feed continuously as the sole ration to provide 13 to 90 mg lubabegron/head/day during the last 14 to 91 days on feed. A decrease in dry matter intake may be noticed in some animals receiving lubabegron. Not approved for use in breeding animals because safety and effectiveness have not been evaluated in these animals. Do not allow horses or other equines access to feed containing lubabegron | 058198 | |
| (ii) 1.25 to 4.54 | Monensin, 5 to 40 | Beef steers and heifers fed in confinement for slaughter: For reduction of ammonia gas emissions per pound of live weight and hot carcass weight and for improved feed efficiency during the last 14 to 91 days on feed | Feed continuously as the sole ration to provide 13 to 90 mg lubabegron/head/day and 50 to 480 mg monensin/head/day during the last 14 to 91 days on feed. No additional improvement in feed efficiency has been shown from feeding monensin at levels greater than 30 g/ton (360 mg monensin/head/day. A decrease in dry matter intake may be noticed in some animals receiving lubabegron. Lubabegron has not been approved for use in breeding animals because safety and effectiveness have not been evaluated in these animals. Do not allow horses or other equines access to feed containing lubabegron and monensin. Ingestion of monensin by horses has been fatal. Monensin medicated cattle and goat feeds are safe for use in cattle and goats only. Consumption by unapproved species may result in toxic reactions. Feeding undiluted or mixing errors resulting in high concentrations of monensin has been fatal to cattle and could be fatal to goats. Must be thoroughly mixed in feeds before use. Do not exceed the levels of monensin recommended in the feeding directions, as reduced average daily gains may result. If feed refusals containing monensin are fed to other groups of cattle, the concentration of monensin in the refusals and amount of refusals fed should be taken into consideration to prevent monensin overdosing. A withdrawal period has not been established for this product for preruminating calves. Do not use in calves to be processed for veal | 058198 |
| (iii) 1.25 to 4.54 | Monensin, 10 to 40 | Beef steers and heifers fed in confinement for slaughter: For reduction of ammonia gas emissions per pound of live weight and hot carcass weight; and for prevention and control of coccidiosis due to | Feed continuously as the sole ration to provide 13 to 90 mg lubabegron/head/day and 0.14 to 0.42 mg monensin/lb body weight per day, depending upon severity of coccidiosis challenge, during the last 14 to 91 days on feed. A decrease in dry matter intake may be noticed in some animals receiving lubabegron. Lubabegron has not been approved for use in breeding animals because safety and effectiveness have not been evaluated in these animals. Do not allow horses or other equines access to feed containing lubabegron and monensin. Ingestion of monensin by horses has been fatal. Monensin medicated cattle and goat feeds are safe for use in cattle and goats only. Consumption by unapproved species may result in toxic reactions. Feeding undiluted or mixing errors resulting in high concentrations of monensin has been fatal to cattle and could be fatal to goats. Must be thoroughly mixed in feeds before use. Do not exceed the levels of monensin recommended in the feeding directions, as reduced average daily gains may result. If feed refusals containing monensin are fed to other groups of cattle, the concentration of monensin in the refusals and amount of refusals fed should be taken into consideration to prevent monensin overdosing. A withdrawal period has not been established for this product for preruminating calves. Do not use in calves to be processed for veal | 058198 |
(2) Lubabegron may also be used in combination with:
(i) Tylosin as in § 558.625.
(ii) [Reserved]
