New Animal Drugs; Withdrawal of Approval of New Animal Drug 
Applications

AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS.

ACTION: Notification of withdrawal.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is withdrawing approval 
of 11 new animal drug applications (NADAs) and 4 abbreviated new animal 
drug applications (ANADAs). These withdrawals of approval of NADAs and 
ANADAs for antimicrobial drugs of importance to human medicine that are 
administered to food-producing animals in medicated feed are being made 
because the products are no longer being manufactured or marketed. 
These actions are consistent with the FDA Center for Veterinary 
Medicine's initiative for the Judicious Use of Antimicrobials.

DATES: Withdrawal of approval is effective December 30, 2016.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sujaya Dessai, Center for Veterinary 
Medicine (HFV-212), Food and Drug Administration, 7519 Standish Pl., 
Rockville, MD 20855, 240-402-5761, [email protected].

4 ANADAs. These applications were identified as being affected by

#209,'' December 2013 (http://www.fda.gov/downloads/AnimalVeterinary/GuidanceComplianceEnforcement/GuidanceforIndustry/UCM299624.pdf). Their
