The veterinary surgeon, as a coach and leader, is in the ideal position to offer this training and auditing. It is vital to ensure that all medicines, both those prescribed by the veterinarian and others, are stored and used appropriately, to ensure maximum welfare benefits to the pigs and benefit to mankind. Good medicine storage and use, results in reduced costs to the farm health team through reducing wasted product. This article, primarily uses pig farms as examples where training provided the necessary resolution to enhanced medicine storage.
