Antibiotics, Drugs

Please
read the Disclaimer
before using information given in these pages
Note:
Foods derived from animal products (dairy products, meats, food
ingredients, sauces, etc) should be as free of drug residues as
possible. Inappropriate use of animal remedies (drugs, antibiotics,
anthelmintics, vaccines, etc) in food-animals can pose a threat to the
human food chain. It also can lead to the emergence of drug-resistent
strains of bacteria, funguses and parasites. This can pose a threat not
only to animals on the farm, but also to animals on neighbouring farms,
AND to human health. The increase in documented cases of MRSA is
attributed, in part, to excessive or inappropriate use of antibiotics in
animals.
Therefore, farmers should seek
veterinary advice on the correct choice and usage of animal remedies, whether
these are POMs (Prescription Only Medicines) or OTCMs (Over-the-Counter
Medicines).
