Adverse reactions
In very rare cases, 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.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports).
