| Feed as the sole ration for 21 consecutive days to chickens that are at risk of developing, but not yet showing clinical signs of, necrotic enteritis associated with Clostridium perfringens. Avilamycin has not been demonstrated to be effective in broiler chickens showing clinical signs of necrotic enteritis prior to the start of medication. To assure responsible antimicrobial drug use in broiler chickens, treatment administration must begin on or before 18 days of age. The safety of avilamycin has not been established in chickens intended for breeding purposes. Do not allow adult turkeys, horses, or other equines access to narasin formulations. Ingestion of narasin by these species has been fatal. Do not feed to chickens producing eggs for human consumption. Narasin and nicarbazin as provided by No. 058198 in § 510.600(c) of this chapter
