FDA 483 - Gary Horst - October 20, 2023

Gary Horst, a grower in Lebanon, PA, received a Form 483 with four observations primarily concerning drug use in food-producing animals. The inspection revealed failures to adhere to drug labeling for withdrawal periods, lack of a valid veterinary client-patient relationship, and inadequate record-keeping and segregation of treated animals. These deficiencies resulted in a dairy cow being sold for slaughter with drug residues exceeding established tolerance levels.
