Import Tips
• Submit FDA NADA approval and feed mill mixing instructions; unlabeled premix may be held as unapproved drug
• Include stability data showing no degradation with carriers to confirm classification as pure compound mix
• Avoid over-dilution (>25%) which could reclassify under 2309 as prepared animal feed
