In 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced Guidance for Industry (GFI) No. 263, which completes the last phase of the transition of all medically important antimicrobials from over-the-counter (OTC) status to requiring veterinary prescription (Rx). Making this transition will ensure the remaining 4% of medically important antimicrobials currently available OTC are used under a licensed veterinarian’s supervision starting by June 2023.
