Special precautions for use in animals
Care should be taken to avoid the following practices because they increase the risk
of development of resistance and could ultimately result in effective therapy:
•
extended period of time.
•
misadministration of the product, or lack of calibration of the dosing device (if
any).
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.

susceptibility of nematodes and recommendations on how to limit further selection for
resistance to anthelmintics.
As Ivermectin is extremely dangerous to fish and aquatic life, treated animals should
not have direct access to surface water and ditches during treatment.
To avoid secondary reactions due to the death of Hypoderma larvae in the
oesophagus or in the spine, it is recommended to administer the product at the end
of warble fly activity and before the larvae reach their resting sites.
It is recommended to treat all animals within a herd or group.
The shedding of nematode eggs can continue for some time after treatment.
