4.4
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.
•
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.
