Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the
veterinary medicinal
product to animals
Phenoxymethylpenicillin may cause hypersensitivity reactions after
injection,
inhalation, oral ingestion, skin or eye contact. Hypersensitivity to
phenoxymethylpenicillin may lead to cross-sensitivity to other
penicillins and
cephalosporins, and vice versa. Allergic reactions caused by these
substances can
sometimes be serious.
In case of accidental ingestion or serious symptoms of
hypersensitivity reactions such
as skin rash following exposure, swelling of the face, lips or eyes or
difficulty with
breathing, seek medical advice immediately and show the package
leaflet to the
physician.
