Display of chemical group symbols on product literature of sheep anthelmintics
24 April 2013
The IMB accepts applications to amend the product literature of sheep anthelmintics to display the chemical group symbols. The initiative is a voluntary one and has been introduced in order to enable easy identification of the chemical group through the use of approved symbols. It is anticipated that this will minimise overuse or continued use in instances where resistance has been confirmed. The scheme is already in place in the UK and the symbols to be used in Ireland are identical to those used in the UK.
