SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH 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.
•
Under dosing, which may be due to under estimation 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.
Resistance to triclabendazole has been reported in _Fasciola hepatica_
in cattle.
Therefore, the use of this product should be based on local
epidemiological
information about susceptibility of the _Fasciola hepatica_ and
