--- "They just changed the regulations that I can no longer purchase antibiotics for my cows without a script from the vet. That just began January 1, 2024 as my regularly scheduled shipment was canceled without any notice."

That is very interesting. In which state, might one ask?

“That is very interesting. In which state, might one ask?”

All states. It’s Federal.

On June 11, 2023, the FDA’s new directive, “Guidance for the Industry #263,” is slated for implementation, meaning that over-the-counter (OTC) antibiotics will no longer be available through traditional retail channels. Instead, these antibiotics will now require a prescription from a licensed veterinarian.
