In very rare cases, anaphylactic reactions and cardiovascular shock can occur. The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:  very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))  common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)  uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)  rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)  very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports). 4.7 Use during Pregnancy, lactation or lay Studies in laboratory animals (rabbit, rat) have not produced any evidence of a teratogenic effect.
