Why is there a concern when
animals have a drug residue in
their body when slaughtered
for meat consumption?
$500
• Meat that contains unsafe levels is in violation of federal law.
Persons who are very sensitive to certain drugs may react if
traces of drugs are in the meat. Persons who eat meat may
develop severe allergic reactions from the traces of
medications that are present.
• Consumers expect safe residue-free meat. People may lose
confidence in the quality of the food products that we
produce if there are residues.
