SPECIAL WARNINGS:

Precautions should be taken to avoid the following practices, which may increase the risk of resistance development, leading to ineffective treatment:

– frequent and repeated use of anthelmintics from the same class over a prolonged period of time.

– underdosing, which may be due to incorrect administration of the product

All clinical cases suspected of anthelmintic resistance should be further investigated using appropriate tests. Where tests clearly suggest resistance to a particular anthelmintic, another one belonging to a different pharmacological class with a different mode of action will be used.

Although generally well tolerated, ivermectin can cause unpleasant side effects if the dose administered is very high. Symptoms of overdose or drug toxicity include: tremors, unsteady gait, stumbling, temporary blindness, dilated pupils, disorientation, weakness, lack of appetite, vomiting, profuse salivation, labored or rapid breathing, and generally appear 12 hours after administration.
