Risk Management Recommendation

In view of the JECFA conclusions on the available scientific information, there is no safe level of residues of carbadox or its metabolites in food that represents an acceptable risk to consumers. For this reason, competent authorities should prevent residues of carbadox in food. This can be accomplished by not using carbadox in food producing animals.
