4.4 SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
Care should be taken to avoid the following practices because they increase the risk of development of resistance and could
ultimately result in ineffective therapy:
•
Too frequent and repeated use of anthelmintics from the same class, over an extended period of time.
•
Underdosing which may be due to underestimation of bodyweight, misadministration of the product, or lack of
calibration of the dosing device.
Suspected clinical cases of resistance to anthelmintics should be further investigated
