levels of sulphamerazine in trout. McCarthy and Roberts ( 1980 ) pointed out that in
some countries, such as the USA, there existed legislation restricting the number of
antimicrobial compounds that may be used on fi sh destined for human consumption. In many countries, drugs may only be obtained on veterinary prescription. The
caveat to the use of chemotherapeutants is that a suitable period of time must lapse
following the conclusion of treatment, before the fi sh may be sold for human consumption. This should allow for the purging from the fi sh of all traces of the active
compound and the metabolites. It is worth remembering the opinions of Snieszko
( 1958a ), who cautioned that drug therapy should only be considered as a stopgap
measure until the sources of infection by Aer. salmonicida could be eliminated, or
disease-resistant strains of fi sh introduced.
