Pre-dilution to incorporate in the feed in the proportion not less than 5 kg / tonne
(i.e. 0.5% m/m).
To ensure a correct dosage, body weight should be determined as accurately
as possible.
If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be
grouped according to their bodyweight and dosed accordingly in order to avoid
under- or overdosing.
The intake of medicated feed depends on the clinical condition of the animals.
In order to obtain the correct dosage, the concentration of flubendazole may
need to be adjusted accordingly.
Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the
excipients.
None described.
Reporting adverse events is important. It allows continuous safety monitoring of
a veterinary medicinal product. Reports should be sent, preferably via a
veterinarian, to either the marketing authorisation holder or the national
competent authority via the national reporting system. See the package leaflet
for respective contact details.
Unnecessary use of antiparasitics or use deviating from the instructions given in
the SPC may increase the resistance selection pressure and lead to reduced
efficacy. The decision to use the veterinary medicinal product should be based
on confirmation of the parasitic species and burden, or of the risk of infection
based on its epidemiological features, for each herd/flock.
Strategies that should be avoided because they might lead to an increased risk
of development of resistance to anthelmintic drugs include:
-
an extended period of time
-

Suspected clinical cases of resistance to anthelmintics should be further
investigated using appropriate tests (e.g. Faecal Egg Count Reduction Test).
Where the results of the test(s) strongly suggest resistance to a particular
anthelmintic, an anthelmintic belonging to another pharmacological class and
having a different mode of action should be used.
For an effective control of roundworms in poultry, additional measures regarding
disinfection, management and biosecurity are necessary, as advised by the
prescribing veterinarian.
