| FDA shuts down Teva/DVM Pharmaceuticals, Malaseb, Oti-calm, 3V and more This is copied and pasted from another site: FDA Shut Down Teva/DVM Pharmaceuticals (Malaseb, OtiCalm, 3V, etc.) Apparently, July 31, the FDA SHUT DOWN TEVA and it's "units", including major animal dermatological product maker DVM. DVM makes numerous popular items, including popular products like Malaseb Shampoo(s), Malaseb Pledgets, Oti-Calm ear cleaner, 3V and 3V HP Omega Fatty Acid formulas, and many many more. Here's links about the subject: Link to FDA's site: FDA Takes Action Against Teva Animal Health Inc. Link to VIN site: VIN News |

| Pretty incredible..I use some of their products (and like them)..but what is amazing to me is that the government (FDA) is shutting them down for altering animal products/drugs but what does the government do for inhumane treatment of animals in puppy mills. Sorry I do not want to highjack this thread but that was my first thought...

| Well, no qc unit and letting bad products go through equals me being done with the company. We don't have any way of knowing if the stuff is contaminated. I have to get a hold of Ellie's nutritionist to change her fish oil and her vet to change her ear cleaner.

Well, that didn't take long. The Derm Caps liquid I've been using IS made by this company.

| I think I have one of their shampoos, too. It's medicinal for Alex who has had some skin issues in the past. That's just great.

So frustrating. And the FDA info was so...vague. But, like Crystal said - if there was no QC, then I guess we're done w/ them.

| I feel like maybe I'm overreacting, but them I come back to the fact that the article says bad products were allowed to go through. I don't know what else to do. I guess I'm going to finish this bottle of fish oil (maybe)...10 or so left and then switch because I can't get another product here fast enough. sigh. I'm so tired of this.
