Happy World Veterinary Day!
This year's theme focuses on the Veterinarian's role in sustainable development to improve livelihoods, food security, and food safety. Vets have such a diverse job description and can have a huge impact on the safety of society. Here are some tips surrounding safe drug use in animals:
- Ensure that drug withholding times for animal products are adhered to before slaughter, egg consumption, or before animals return to the milking herd
- Ensure that all pet and livestock medications have a valid prescription and are purchased and used under the guidance or supervision of a qualified Veterinarian
- Never use, sell, or loan an unlabelled medication
- Know the basic signs of drug reactions for your pets and livestock animals and notify your Veterinarian as soon as any abnormal signs are observed after administering a medication
- Purchase animal products from low-intensity farms or companies, where drug use is minimal and warranted
Let's all join hands to make our food safer, our pets healthier, and our world better!
Here's a great article highlighting the Veterinarian's role in food safety:
