Tyson to halt buying cattle fed Merck supplement
Tyson Foods told cattle feeders it will stop purchasing animals fed Zilmax, a growth drug also called zilpaterol, amid concerns it may cause lameness. The move could reduce beef supply and raise prices, though Tyson says it is about animal welfare, not food safety. Purchases of Zilmax-fed cattle will end September 6.

Therapists say progress toward goals and documented improvements permit continued treatment without referral. Patients praise cutting extra steps and waiting time as they begin healing sooner.
