_Oestrus ovis_ (Sheep Nasal Bot Fly)
Ticks (_lxodes ricinus_) feeding on sheep at the time of treatment are
likely to produce
fewer viable eggs.
4.3 CONTRAINDICATIONS
Do not use in animals with known hypersensitivity to the active
ingredient.
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 bodyweight,
misadministration of the product, or lack of calibration of the dosing
device.
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 tests strongly suggest resistance to a particular anthelmintic, an
anthelmintic
belonging to another pharmacological class and having a different mode
of action
should be used.
