INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES

clinical mastitis in periparturient

SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
In a European field trial, the incidence of clinical mastitis observed
in the treated group was 9.1 %
(113/1235) and in the control group 12.4 % (152/1230), showing a
relative reduction in mastitis
incidence of 26.0 % (p=0.0094). The efficacy was tested together with
normal management practice.
Clinical mastitis is investigated as a change in the appearance of the
milk or of the quarter or of both
milk and quarter.
Based on all field studies, the proportion of mastitis prevented due
to herd treatment with Imrestor
(Prevented Fraction) is 0.25 (with 95% confidence interval 0.14 –
0.35).
The veterinary medicinal product should only be used on the basis of a
positive benefit risk assessment
performed at the herd level by the responsible veterinarian.
