Ban on poultry antibiotic takes effect on Monday
The first U.S. ban of a veterinary antibiotic because of concerns it could lead to antibiotic-resistant bacteria in humans takes effect Monday.
Farmers no longer will be able to use Baytril, known generically as enrofloxacin, on poultry under a ban issued by the Food and Drug Administration.
The ban ends a five-year battle between manufacturer Bayer, the FDA, poultry farmers and advocacy groups who argue that the overuse of antibiotics could lead to strains of bacteria that no antibiotic can overcome.
