Chemical compound
Roxarsone is an organoarsenic compound that has been used in poultry production as a feed additive to increase weight gain and improve feed efficiency, and as a coccidiostat.[1] As of June 2011, it was approved for chicken feed in the United States, Canada, Australia, and 12 other countries.[2] The drug was also approved in the United States and elsewhere for use in pigs.[1][2]
Its use in the United States was voluntarily ended by the manufacturers in June 2011 and has been illegal since 2013.[3][4] Its use was immediately suspended in Malaysia.[5] It was banned in Canada in August 2011.[6] In Australia, its use in chicken feed was discontinued in 2012.[7] Roxarsone has been banned in the European Union since 1999.[8]
