Which statement is true about Tilmicosin's VFD uses?

• A. Cattle BRD and Swine SRD
• B. Poultry BRD
• C. Swine BRD
• D. Cattle only

Answer: (A)

Tilmicosin under a Veterinary Feed Directive can only be used for the indications approved on its labeling, with oversight from a veterinarian. The labeled uses include controlling bovine respiratory disease in cattle and treating swine respiratory disease in swine. It is not labeled for poultry, and it is not limited to cattle only. Therefore, the true statement is that tilmicosin’s VFD uses include cattle BRD and swine SRD. The other options don’t fit because they either involve a non-labeled indication (poultry BRD) or omit the swine SRD indication (cattle only, or swine BRD).
