SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR TARGET SPECIES
Care should be taken to avoid the following practices because they
increase the risk of
development of resistance and could ultimately result in ineffective
therapy:
•
Too frequent and repeated use of anthelmintics from the same class,
over an
extended period of time.
•
Underdosing,
which
may
be
due
to
underestimation
of
body
weight,
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.
