    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Food Safety
    • Antimicrobial Stewardship

    Background:

    • The 'stable to table' food safety approach highlights the importance of responsible antibiotic use in animal agriculture.
    • Inappropriate antibiotic use in food animals can compromise long-term drug efficacy and increase the risk of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) transmission to humans.
    • Consumer confidence in veterinary medicine is linked to the safe and appropriate use of antibiotics.

    Discussion:

    • This article advocates for a transparent and actionable policy framework governing the veterinary application of antibiotics.
    • The Danish policy on veterinary antibiotic use is presented as a significant model for consideration.

    Key Insights:

    • Judicious antibiotic use safeguards long-term treatment options and animal welfare.
