FDA approves higher dose for Rumensin
 

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved an expanded dose range for Rumensin.

The approval increases the upper end of the dose range to 40 grams per tonne, on a 90 percent dry matter basis.

Rumensin is the only FDA-approved feed ingredient to prevent and control coccidiosis and to improve feed efficiency by providing more energy from the ration. By controlling disease and increasing the efficiency of rumen fermentation, Rumensin reduces feed intake variation, thus improving rumen function and gastrointestinal health.
