Dogs: single injection. Treatment can be repeated after 24 hours if necessary.

Adverse reactions
In horses and cattle, a slight increase in heart rate may be observed occasionally due to the parasympatholytic activity of hyoscine butylbromide.
In dogs painful reactions at the injection site can occur immediately after injection, which abate rapidly and have no negative impact on the expected therapeutic benefit. In very rare cases, anaphylactic reactions may occur and should be treated symptomatically.
Based on pharmacological properties of hyoscine butylbromide, dryness of mucous membranes, paralytic ileus, constipation and urinary retention may occur.
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).
