Dimetridazole (60)

Risk Management Recommendation

In view of the JECFA conclusions, although insufficient data were available or there was a lack of data to establish a safe level of residues of dimetridazole or its metabolites in food representing an acceptable risk to consumers, significant health concerns were identified. For this reason, competent authorities should prevent residues of dimetridazole in food. This can be accomplished by not using dimetridazole in food producing animals.
