CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1
TARGET SPECIES
Cattle (calves), sheep (lambs), pigs, chickens and turkeys.
4.2
INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
Treatment and metaphylaxis of enteric infections caused by
non-invasive _Escherichia coli_
susceptible to colistin sulfate.
In the case of metaphylaxis, the presence of the disease in the group
must be established
before the product is used.
4.3
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to colistin sulfate or to any
of the excipients.
Do not use in cases of resistance to polymyxins.
Do not use in horses, particularly in foals, since colistin sulfate,
due to a shift in the
gastrointestinal microflora balance could lead to the development of
antimicrobial
associated colitis (Colitis X), typically associated with Clostridium
difficile, which may be
fatal.
4.4
SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
As an adjunct to treatment, good management and hygiene practices
should be introduced
in order to reduce the risk of infection and to control the potential
build-up of resistance.
There is cross-resistance between colistin sulfate and polymyxin B.
Colistin sulfate exerts concentration-dependent activity against
Gram-negative bacteria.
Following oral administration high concentrations are achieved in the
gastrointestinal tract,
i.e. the target site, due to the poor absorption of the substance.
These factors indicate that
a longer duration of treatment than the one indicated in section 4.9,
leading to
unnecessary exposure, is not recommended.
