14200.  The Legislature hereby declares that this chapter, which
prescribes the distribution and use of livestock drugs, is intended
to assure that such drugs are available to livestock producers for
their use in protecting the health of the livestock population of the
state, and that such use will in turn benefit the general public by
providing an abundant supply of wholesome food and fiber.
   It is further declared that nothing in this chapter is intended to
prevent a livestock producer from administering livestock drugs
safely and effectively when such use is in accordance with the
labeling directions for the drug used.
