Transient discolouration of the tissue and/or slight swelling may be
observed commonly at the site of

Deaths have been reported rarely in piglets following the
administration of parenteral iron injections.
These deaths have been associated with genetic factors or deficiencies
of vitamin E and/or selenium.
Piglet deaths have been reported which have been attributed to an
increased susceptibility to infection
due to temporary blocking of the reticuloendothelial system.

INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
For the concurrent prevention of clinical signs of coccidiosis (such
as diarrhoea) in neonatal piglets
on farms with a confirmed history of coccidiosis caused by
_Cystoisospora suis,_
and prevention of iron
deficiency anaemia.
4.3

any of the excipients.
4.4
SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
Neonatal piglets may experience clinical signs similar to those due to
coccidiosis (such as diarrhoea)
for numerous reasons (e.g. other pathogens, stress). Should clinical
signs be observed in the two
weeks following administration of the product, the responsible
veterinarian should be informed.
Frequent and repeated use of antiprotozoals from the same class may
lead to the development of
resistance.
It is recommended to administer the product to all the piglets in a
litter.

Once clinical signs of coccidiosis are evident, damage to the small
intestine will have already
occurred. Therefore, the product should be administered to all animals
before the expected onset of
clinical signs, that is, in the prepatent period.
Hygienic measures may reduce the risk of porcine coccidiosis. It is
therefore recommended to
concomitantly improve the hygiene conditions in the farm concerned,
particularly by increasing
dryness and cleanliness.
