Adverse reactions
Lameness and pain (mild to severe) was reported very commonly within 24 hours after product administration. Lameness and pain with a delayed onset (≤1 week post-treatment) was also observed commonly. Resolution of lameness and pain depended on the severity. Mild lameness and pain resolved completely within a few days without the need for anti-inflammatory treatment. Severe lameness and pain required symptomatic treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and complete remission took a period of weeks
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).
