                          SERVICES--(Continued)
 
PART 530--EXTRALABEL DRUG USE IN ANIMALS--Table of Contents
 
   Subpart D--Extralabel Use of Human and Animal Drugs in Animals Not 
                     Intended for Human Consumption
 
Sec. 530.30  Extralabel drug use in nonfood animals.


    (a) Because extralabel use of animal and human drugs in nonfood-
producing animals does not ordinarily pose a threat to the public 
health, extralabel use of animal and human drugs is permitted in 
nonfood-producing animal practice except when the public health is 
threatened. In addition, the provisions of Sec. 530.20(a)(1) will apply 
to the use of an approved animal drug.
    (b) If FDA determines that an extralabel drug use in animals not 
intended for human consumption presents a risk to the public health, the 
agency may publish in the Federal Register a notice prohibiting such use 
following the procedures in Sec. 530.25. The prohibited extralabel drug 
use will be codified in Sec. 530.41.
