I raised the medical thing because what flitted through my mind is how
very careful some people are about not using animal manure that
contains veterinary medicines.

Many veterinary medicines used on herbivores, are intended to kill
insect parasites, including intestinal worms in the colon. Faeces
containing active ingredients
could possibly reach and kill beneficial worms, insects and organisms
in a compost heap.

It's rare for UK gardeners to take any parasitical medication by
mouth let alone vermifuges so the same caveat hardly applies to their
urine.

I am finding this thread incredibly uplifting. How very civilised to be
able to talk about a perfectly natural bodily function without rancour. ;-)
