The document titled "Antimicrobial prescribing guidelines for sheep" provides guidelines for the appropriate use of antimicrobial agents in the sheep industry in Australia. The guidelines emphasize responsible use to minimize antimicrobial resistance and encourage veterinarians to consider alternatives, accurately diagnose infections, and select antimicrobials based on guidelines and susceptibility testing. The document also highlights the need for record-keeping, monitoring treatment response, and minimizing environmental contamination. It discusses the importance of continuous improvement in infection control and disease management, as well as the use of off-label antimicrobial therapy and the need to consider tissue residue and withholding periods. The guidelines aim to support safe and effective antimicrobial use in the sheep industry while addressing the global threat of antimicrobial resistance. [Extracted from the article] |
