#FDA is concerned about pathogens like these in any pet food. This lot of pet food poses a serious threat to human/animal health. If you have Hare Today Gone Tomorrow Ground Chicken/Bones/Organs, lot 12.04.2018, stop feeding it to your pets.

There are several steps consumers should take to reduce the risk of infection to human and animal health. Start by throwing away the product in a secure container where other animals cannot access it.

Today #FDA is announcing new guidances to help companies develop a REMS Assessment Plan to improve the quality of the information used to assess the program’s effectiveness and provide evidence the REMS is meeting its risk mitigation goals. My statement https://t.co/XEyocylBRf

#FDA’s primary risk management tool for Rx medicines is communicating through FDA-approved product labeling, to ensure that the benefits outweigh the risks. In some cases FDA may determine a REMS is also needed - programs designed to support safe use of a medication.

Clean where product was stored; clean and disinfect all bowls, utensils, food prep surfaces, pet bedding, toys, floors and any other surfaces that the food or pet may have had contact with. Also, clean up pet’s feces in yards or parks where people or other animals may be exposed

We were delighted to welcome to #FDA about 1,000 of our valued colleagues who are currently on furlough at our event today and look forward to being back to full strength soon. We have many staff on furlough who are very important to our mission. We value all our people very much https://t.co/J2Ek4FlWPX

Last summer, #FDA learned and reported that some generic versions of the ARB class of medicines contain nitrosamine impurities that don’t meet the agency’s safety standards. Since then we’ve launched a cross-functional investigation that continues today. https://t.co/9QpxhZJ9X9

I want to express how delighted we were to see almost 1,000 furloughed staff who returned to #FDA yesterday for our outreach event, and how grateful we are for the continued dedication of all our colleagues. I know how hard today is on many of you, and you have my deep respect. https://t.co/P1YwqFC4XG

RT @FDATobacco: #FactFriday Many teens underestimate how easy it is to become addicted to nicotine. This National Drug & Alcohol Facts Week, learn about what @FDATobacco is doing to combat youth tobacco use. #NDAFW https://t.co/mi0MJAeYfp

We’ve also compiled a FAQ in the interest of providing greater transparency into our ongoing investigation. https://t.co/0KLEc991jZ

Read my statement with Dr. Woodcock on our latest thinking about root causes of the impurities, work we’re doing to mitigate and prevent ARB shortages, and how we’ll continue to improve our science and standards for detecting and preventing these risks. https://t.co/xE5zYgXh3e

When coupled with social, medical and psychological services, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is often the most effective approach for opioid dependence. One way #FDA is encouraging access for wider MAT use is through the approval of generic MAT drug products. #stopMATstigma

THREAD: #FDA has approved an additional generic application for Suboxone. We remain committed to improving access to lower cost, safe, and effective generic alternatives. https://t.co/C3lzT72wV8

I'm delighted by the announcement by @POTUS of a deal to re-open the federal government, I'm inspired by the men and women of #FDA who held fast to their critical posts through this challenge, and to my many colleagues on furlough, I can't wait to welcome you back. We're one FDA!

Measles is a feared & highly contagious childhood malady. Once largely vanquished in U.S., it’s resurgence is an avoidable tragedy. Vaccines like MMR are safe and effective. The shot is perhaps one of the most exhaustively studied products in modern medical history #VaccinesWork QT @NBCNewsHealth: Measles outbreak grows in northwest, 31 cases reported https://t.co/BxBbKe4hyx)
