Growth promotants include all agents used to increase the rate of body weight gain. Used principally in food animals but also in horses with a view to increasing muscle mass and physical performance, and in any species to hasten recuperation in animals debilitated by illness. Pharmaceutical preparations are principally anabolic steroids. Husbandry procedures include oestrogen and zearalenone implants and dietary supplementation with antibiotics, monesin and, in the case of pigs, copper. 4, record 1, English, - growth%20promotant
