-Pigs: 4 g of product / 50 kg.b.wt / day, for 3-4 consecutive days.
Warnings:
• Do not administer to birds whose eggs are intended for human consumption.
• A significant part of the strains of E.coli they show high MIC (minimum inhibitory concentration) values against spectinomycin and can be clinically resistant.
• During treatment the only source of drinking water should be medicated drinking water
Precautions:
Special precautions for use in animals:
• Good clinical practice requires basing treatment on susceptibility testing of bacteria isolated from diseased animals. If this is not possible, treatment should be based on local epidemiological information (regional, farm level) on the sensitivity of the different strains of the bacterial species usually involved in the infectious process.
• The use of the drug in conditions other than those recommended in the Insert may increase the prevalence of resistant bacteria and decrease the effectiveness of the treatment as a consequence of the appearance of cross-resistance.
• Sick animals have a reduced intake capacity and an altered water consumption pattern and therefore, severely affected animals may require parenteral treatment.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals:
• People with known hypersensitivity to spectinomycin should avoid all contact with the drug.
• Handle the medicine with care to avoid contact during its incorporation into water.
• Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and inhalation of the medicine. In case of accidental contact, wash immediately with plenty of water. If symptoms appear after exposure, such as a skin rash, consult a doctor.
• Swelling of the face, lips and eyes or respiratory distress are more serious signs that require urgent medical attention.
• Wash hands after handling.
• Do not smoke, eat or drink while handling the medicine.
