title: [Chronic furazolidone poisoning in swine? Practical problems and legal consequences].
abstract: Long-term treatment (eighteen months) with a medicated feed containing 400 ppm of furazolidone gave rise to side-effects on a pig farm on which the animals were affected with persistent oedema disease. These side-effects disappeared on discontinuation of the medication. In view of this suspected case of chronic furazolidone intoxication the court formulated several questions for a panel of experts. The questions and the replies given are stated.
