Stock Withholding Meat withholding
Cattle producing meat or offal for human consumption must not be sold for slaughter either during treatment or within 28 days of cessation of the last treatment.
If a pregnant cow is treated, and the cow calves within the meat with-holding period of the product with which she has been treated, the calf is eligible for slaughter only when the cow is eligible for slaughter. For example, if a cow was treated with Noromectin® Plus Injection (which has a 28 day meat with-holding period) 14 days before she calved (ie the bobby calf is born 14 days into the treatment), then 14 days from the date of birth must elapse before the calf is fit for slaughter for human consumption.
Ensure injection is subcutaneous (under the skin), as intramuscular (into the muscle) injection will result in prolonged residues. Where intramuscular injection may have occurred, animals producing meat and offal for human consumption must not be sold for slaughter within 91 days of the last treatment.
Milk withholding
Milk intended for sale for human consumption must be discarded for not less than 14 days following the last treatment.

| Barriers to effectiveness |
Barriers Resistance can develop to any anthelmintic. Check the effectiveness of anthelmintics at least annually (but preferably 3-4 times/year) by faecal egg counting 14 days after treatment, and preferably immediately pre-treatment as well. Follow current recommended parasite management practices to reduce the potential for resistance to develop.
Endectocide-resistance in Cooperia spp in cattle is relatively common. This parasite can be a problem in young cattle so generally Noromectin® Plus Injection should not be used as the only anthelmintic in cattle up to the age of 12-18 months.
