“…The WormBoss site describes the prevalence of resistance for sheep and goats using the same terms, with significant levels of resistance existing for the BZ, morantel and ML chemicals. While the list of chemicals registered for goat control is quite limited, a survey of worm control practices among goat producers in 2014 found that most (77% of survey respondents) use anthelmintics registered for sheep and cattle, 19 and hence the spectrum of chemicals towards which goat worms are resistant is greater than the sum of the chemicals registered for use in goats; for example, while monepantel is not registered for worm control in goats, resistance to this chemical was first confirmed in Australia in goats in 2014. 20 The use of anthelmintics in goats at doses recommended for sheep has important implications for the development of anthelmintic resistance.…”

The Australian ruminant livestock industries are faced with the need to control parasitic infectious diseases that can seriously impact the health of animals. However, increasing levels of resistance to insecticides, anthelmintics and acaricides are substantially reducing the ability to control some of these parasites. Here we review the current situation with regard to chemical resistances in parasites across the various sectors of the Australian ruminant livestock industries and assess the level of threat that these resistances pose to the sustainability of these sectors in the short to long terms. We also look at the extent to which testing for resistance occurs across the various industry sectors, and hence how well‐informed these sectors are of the extent of chemical resistance. We examine on‐farm management practices, breeding of parasite‐resistant animals, and non‐chemical therapeutics that may act as short to long term means to reduce the current reliance on chemicals for parasite control. Finally, we look at the balance between the prevalence and magnitude of current resistances and the availability and adoption rates of management, breeding and therapeutic alternatives in order to assess the parasite control outlook for the various industry sectors.

“…However, particular situations such as that occurring with goats, for which there are very few anthelmintic formulations, cause various problems. Many producers use anthelmintics registered for other species (generally sheep) in goats, which may increase the selection pressure for anthelmintic resistance or affect the safety of drug residues in meat or milk from treated goats [144].…”

Drugs are used in veterinary medicine to prevent or treat animal diseases. When rationally administered to livestock following Good Veterinary Practices (GVP), they greatly contribute to improving the production of food of animal origin. Since humans can be exposed chronically to veterinary drugs through the diet, residues in food are evaluated for effects following chronic exposures. Parameters such as an acceptable daily intake (ADI), the no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL), maximum residue limits (MRLs), and the withdrawal periods (WPs) are determined for each drug used in livestock. Drug residues in food exceeding the MRLs usually appear when failing the GVP application. Different factors related either to the treated animal or to the type of drug administration, and even the type of cooking can affect the level of residues in edible tissues. Residues above the MRLs can have a diverse negative impact, mainly on the consumer’s health, and favor antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Drug residue monitoring programmes are crucial to ensure that prohibited or authorized substances do not exceed MRLs. This comprehensive review article addresses different aspects of drug residues in edible tissues produced as food for human consumption and provides relevant information contributing to rational pharmacotherapy in food-producing animals.
