[QUOTE="cjmc, post: 1417062, member: 27842"] Yes and no. Bovatec is TECHNICALLY an ionophore, in the eyes of the government cattle fed bovatec are not being fed an antibiotic. That being said, Bovatec kills specific bacteria in the rumen, which is a very "antibiotic" sounding if you ask me.. Bovatec is not used in human medicine though, so no worries about antibiotic resistance, probably the reason as to why its classified as an ionophore and not an antibiotic. [/QUOTE]
