Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals Take care to avoid accidental self injection. In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or the label to the physician. People with known hypersensitivity to ketoprofen or benzyl alcohol should avoid contact with the veterinary medicinal product. Avoid splashes on the skin and eyes. Rinse thoroughly with water should this occur. If irritation persists seek medical advice. Wash hands after use. Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness) In very rare cases (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports) these signs can be observed: ∙ temporary irritation after repeated intramuscular injections ∙ gastric and intestinal irritation or ulceration (due to ketoprofen mechanism of action including inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis) ∙ reversible inappetence after repeated administration to swine ∙ allergic reactions Use during pregnancy and lactation The safety of ketoprofen has been investigated in pregnant laboratory animals, (rats, mice and rabbits) and in cattle, and showed no teratogenic or embryotoxic effects. The product may be given to pregnant and to lactating cattle, and to lactating sows. As the effect of ketoprofen on the fertility, pregnancy or foetal health of horses have not been determined, the product should not be administered to pregnant horses. As the safety of ketoprofen has not been assessed in pregnant sows, the product should be used in these case according to the benefit/risk assessment by the responsible veterinarian. Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction The veterinary medicinal product must not be administered in conjunction with, or within 24 hours of administration of other NSAIDs and glucocorticoids. Concurrent administration of diuretics, nephrotoxic drugs and anticoagulative drugs should be avoided. Ketoprofen is highly bound to plasma proteins, and may displace or be displaced by other highly protein bound medicines, such as anticoagulants. Due to the fact that ketoprofen may inhibit platelet aggregation and cause gastrointestinal ulceration, it should not be used with other medicines that have the same profile of adverse drug reactions.
