Avoid introduction of contamination.
If stored at temperatures below 0°C, Closamectin Pour-On Solution for Cattle may appear cloudy. Allowing to warm at room temperature will restore the normal appearance without affecting efficacy.
Adverse reactions
In very rare cases (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports), neurological signs such as blindness, ataxia, and recumbency may occur after administration of the product. These cases may also be associated with gastrointestinal signs such as anorexia, diarrhoea and in extreme cases signs may persist and may result in death of the animal.
Even though the overall incidence of adverse events is very rare, it has been noted that, when there is an adverse event in a herd, several animals may be affected. Therefore, should neurological signs be observed in one animal, it is recommended to reinforce surveillance, at the herd level, of all treated animals
