When Health Canada approves a veterinary drug for sale in Canada, it requires the manufacturer to provide specific instructions on the label for direction to veterinarians prescribing the drug. When used in accordance with the directions on the label, the food derived from treated animals is considered safe for human consumption. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) has a program in place to monitor Canada’s food supply and has methods of detecting violative residues of a drug (including Baytril) in edible tissues derived from animals.
