Hexasol LA Solution for Injection 100ml

arget species Cattle. Indications for use, specifying the target species Specifically formulated to provide initial anti-inflammatory for 24-36 hours and sustained anti-bacterial activity for 5-6 days following a single administration. Indicated primarily for the treatment of bovine respiratory disease associated with Mannheimia haemolytica where an anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic effect is required. In addition, a wide range of organisms are known to be sensitive in vitro to oxytetracycline, including Pasteurella spp, Arcanobacterium pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus and certain mycoplasmas. The product may therefore be of use in the treatment of disease in cattle caused by such organisms where an anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effect is required. Contraindications Use is contraindicated in animals suffering from cardiac, hepatic or renal disease, where there is a possibility of gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding or where there is hypersensitivity to the product. Avoid use in dehydrated, hypovolaemic or hypotensive animals as there is a potential risk of increased renal toxicity. Do not administer other NSAIDs concurrently, or within 24 hours of each other. Concurrent use of potentially nephrotoxic drugs should be avoided. Do not exceed the stated dose or duration of treatment. Special Warnings for Each Target Species None known. Special Precautions for Use Special Precautions for use in animals: Avoid intra-arterial injection. Use in any animals less than 6 weeks of age or in aged animals may involve additional risk. If such use cannot be avoided, animals may require a reduced dosage and careful clinical management. It is preferable that prostaglandin inhibiting drugs are not administered to animals undergoing general anaesthesia until fully recovered. Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the product to the animals: Avoid eye contact and direct contact with skin. To avoid possible sensitisation reactions, avoid contact with skin. Gloves should be worn during application. Wash hands after use. In the case of accidental contact with eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. The product may cause reactions in sensitive individuals. If you have known hypersensitivity for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory products, do not handle the product. Reactions may be serious. Avoid accidental self-injection. Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness) The use of tetracyclines during the period of tooth and bone development, including late pregnancy, may lead to discolouration. Although the product is well tolerated, occasionally a local reaction of a transient nature may be observed. Hypersensitivity reactions (collapse) may occur very rarely. Such reactions may evolve to a more severe condition (anaphylaxis), which may be life-threatening. The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention: - very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports). Use during pregnancy, lactation or lay The use of tetracyclines during the period of tooth and bone development, including late pregnancy, may lead to discolouration. Safety studies have not been conducted in pregnant animals. Interactions with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction Some NSAIDs may be highly bound to plasma proteins and compete with other highly bound drugs which can lead to toxic effects. Concurrent administration of potentially nephrotoxic drugs should be avoided.
