needed. Special precautions for use Special precautions for use in animals If adverse reactions occur, treatment should be discontinued and the advice of a veterinarian should be sought. Avoid use in very severely dehydrated, hypovolaemic or hypotensive animals which require parenteral rehydration, as there may be a potential risk of renal toxicity. In cases of inadequate relief of pain when used in the treatment of equine colic, careful re-evaluation of the diagnosis should be made as this could indicate the need for surgical intervention. Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals Accidental self injection may cause pain. People with known hypersensitivity to Non-Steroidal Anti- Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) should avoid contact with the veterinary medicinal product. In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or the label to the physician. Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness) Administration of the veterinary medicinal product by the subcutaneous route in cattle and the intramuscular route in pigs is well tolerated; only a slight transient swelling at the injection site following subcutaneous administration was observed in cattle treated in clinical studies. In horses, a transient swelling at the injection site can occur but resolved without intervention.

The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention: •very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reactions) •common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals treated in 100 animals) •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).
