Pulmovet 250 mg/ml Solution for Use in Drinking Water/Milk for Cattle, Pigs, Chickens and Turkeys

Important: Must be diluted before administration to animals.
Pigs, chickens and turkeys: Water consumption should be monitored in order to guarantee
adequate dosing. In case water consumption does not match quantities for which
recommended concentrations were calculated, the concentration of the veterinary
medicinal product has to be adapted in a way that the recommended dosage will be taken
up by the animals or different medication should be considered.
The uptake of medication by animals can be altered as a consequence of illness. In case
of insufficient uptake of water or milk replacer, animals should be treated parenterally
using an appropriate injectable veterinary medicinal product.
Repeated use of the veterinary medicinal product should be avoided by improving
management practices and thorough cleansing and disinfection.
Use of the veterinary medicinal product deviating from the instructions given in the SPC
may increase the prevalence of bacteria resistant to tilmicosin and may decrease the
effectiveness of treatment with other macrolides, lincosamides and streptogramin B due to
the potential for cross-resistance.

Special precautions for use in animals
For oral use only. Contains disodium edetate; do not inject.
Use of the veterinary medicinal product should be based on susceptibility testing of the
bacteria isolated from the animal. If this is not possible, therapy should be based on local
(regional, farm level) epidemiological information about susceptibility of the target bacteria.
Official, national and regional antimicrobial policies should be taken into account when the
veterinary medicinal product is used.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary
medicinal product to animals
Tilmicosin may induce irritation. Macrolides, such as tilmicosin, may also cause
hypersensitivity (allergy) following injection, inhalation, ingestion or contact with skin or
eye. Hypersensitivity to tilmicosin may lead to cross reactions to other macrolides and vice
versa. Allergic reactions to these substances may occasionally be serious and therefore
direct contact should be avoided.
