4.4 SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
Adrenaline at physiological levels markedly reduces the effect of
Oxytocin on the
uterus or mammary gland. For this reason the animal should not be
frightened when
complete Oxytocin effect is desired to cause either milk let-down or
uterine
contractions.
4.5 SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE IN ANIMALS
When the veterinary medicinal product is used as an aid in parturition
cervical
dilation must be confirmed prior to administration to prevent risk of
