Special precautions for use in animals
Use of the product should be based on identification and susceptibility testing of the
target pathogens. If this is not possible, therapy should be based on epidemiological
information and knowledge of susceptibility of the target pathogens at farm level, or
at local/regional level.
Use of the product should be in accordance with official, national and regional
antimicrobial policies.
The feeding of waste milk containing residues of penicillin to calves should be
avoided up to the end of the milk withdrawal period (except during the colostral
phase), because it could select antimicrobial-resistant bacteria (e.g. ESBL) within the
intestinal microbiota of the calf and increase the faecal shedding of these bacteria.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal
product to animals
This veterinary medicinal product can cause sensitisation and contact dermatitis.
Hypersensitivity to penicillins may lead to cross reactions to cephalosporins, and vice
versa.
Allergic reactions to these substances may occasionally be serious.
Handle this product with great care to avoid direct skin contact or self-injection.
People with known hypersensitivity to penicillin should avoid contact with the
veterinary medicinal product.
Personal protective equipment consisting of gloves should be worn when handling
the veterinary medicinal product.
Wash hands after use.
In case of accidental contact with the skin, wash immediately with plenty of water. If
symptoms following exposure such as skin develop or in case of accidental self-
injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or the label
to the physician. Swelling of the face, lips or eyes, or difficulty with breathing are
more serious symptoms and require urgent medical attention.
Special precautions for the protection of the environment
Not applicable.
