Special warnings

Use of the product should be based on susceptibility testing of the bacteria isolated from the animal. If this is not possible, therapy should be based on local (regional, farm level) epidemiological information about susceptibility of the target bacteria.

People with known hypersensitivity to tiamulin should avoid contact with the veterinary medicinal product. To prevent any unpleasant effects, personal protective equipment consisting in gloves, goggles and protective dust masks should be worn when handling or mixing the product.

In case of accidental ingestion or the occurrence of symptoms characterized by skin rash, seek medical advice and show the product leaflet or the label to the physician. Serious symptoms such as face swelling, lips or eye lids, accompanied by breath difficulties, need immediate medical attention.

Following the studies carried out on laboratory animals, no teratogenic, embryotoxic or maternal toxic effects were observed; the product can be used safely.

By associating with ionophore anticoccidians (monensin, maduramycin, salinomycin and narasin), their toxicity is increased resulting a severe growth depression, ataxia, paralysis or death.

Animals should not receive products containing monensin, salinomycin, maduramycin or narasin during or at least 7 days before or after treatment with Tiadem 10%.

Overdose may produce hypersalivation, gastrointestinal disorders manifested by diarrhea and/or vomiting and may cause a slight state of apathy. Remove the medicated feed. If signs of intoxication do occur promptly remove the medicated feed, replace with fresh un-medicated feed and apply supportive, symptomatic therapy.
