Antibacterial and antibiotic drugs are used to treat various conditions that affect animals such as companion animals, swine, cattle, horses, and fish. These drugs are also used to accelerate the growth of animals, especially in North America and Europe. However, an overuse of antibiotics has led to the development of antibiotic-resistant strains of microorganisms. This is a worrying trend as the resistant microbes could be transferred to humans through the consumption of milk or meat. Hence, organizations such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the US and the Responsible Use of Medicines in Agriculture Alliance (RUMA) in the UK recommend judicious use of antibiotics in animals and strictly regulate the market.
