Emirates Bans Veterinary Ciprofloxacin
The Emirates Foundation for Medicine has decided to ban the use of the active substance "Ciprofloxacin" in the veterinary sector starting November 1, 2026, with the aim of reducing antimicrobial resistance and preserving the effectiveness of treatments in human medicine. This decision is based on a scientific assessment of the risks associated with bacterial resistance, especially considering that "Ciprofloxacin" is classified as a critically important antibiotic for human health. The ban includes nine veterinary products, along with measures to identify existing products and monitor compliance until the ban is fully implemented. This step contributes to strengthening pharmaceutical security and public health.
