If they don’t the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) wants to know why not. There’s good reason for concern - by you and USDA - if any licensed vaccine, bacterin, antitoxin, serum or related product fails to perform. Few products have been tested as thoroughly as the veterinary biologies licensed by USDA’s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS). Few manufacturers are inspected as closely as USDA-licensed biologies laboratories. The Virus-Serum-Toxin Act of 1913 requires all veterinary biologies in in terstate trade to be licensed by USDA and to be pure, safe, potent and effective. Licensing and inspection procedures keep producers and their products up to the mark - requiring high standards of sanitation, exact records, uniform production procedures, and sampling and testing of every production lot. Even the labels and instructions for use must meet USDA approval. Even so, you may not always get the results that are indicated. First, be sure you followed the directions exactly. Be sure your needles and equipment were clean. But if you believe a biological product failed to perform, if it produced unexpected results or ad verse side effects, notify your area office for APHIS Veterinary Services, USDA.
