I am a college student taking a pharmaceutical chemistry class. I have to write a term paper about a drug of my choice, I want to write about a livestock pharmaceutical but I'm not sure which one to pick. Any suggestions? Maybe something relatively new, but will have some data surrounding it, maybe something revolutionary or controversial?
Thanks

Zilmax. Not sure its a pharmaceutical though. If it is and you do the paper on it I would love a copy. I have a lot of questions on this.

You could consider Bute which is currently relevant in the news with residues showing up in horse meat in Europe and horse meat being found in beef products which in turn are showing residues of the drug.  There is also the non authorized use of Bute by some in cattle.
