Withholding periods for livestock medicines
Meat, milk and egg withholding periods for 114 drenches, vaccines, pour-ons and other medicines used on Australian farms. Each one has been checked against its APVMA-registered label. Open a product to see its export slaughter interval and the label's other rules.
What a withholding period means
It's the minimum time that must pass between an animal's last treatment and when it can be slaughtered, or its milk or eggs used, for people to eat. Count it from the last treatment: an animal treated on 1 March with a 28-day meat withholding period can't go for slaughter before 29 March.
Selling stock for export? The export slaughter interval (ESI) can be longer.
