Adverse reactions
In very rare cases, some dogs may show discomfort during injection.
In very rare cases, a diffuse swelling, up to 5 mm in diameter, may be observed at the site of injection; occasionally this swelling may be hard and painful and last for up to 3 days post injection.
In very rare cases, hypersensitivity reactions may occur. In the event of an anaphylactic reaction appropriate treatment such as adrenaline should be administered without delay.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals displaying adverse reactions during the course of one treatment)
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports).
