Amoxycare LA Injection
Contra-indications, warnings, etc
This product is not suitable for intravenous or intrathecal administration.
Milk for human consumption must not be taken from a cow during treatment. With cows milked twice daily, milk for human consumption must not be taken from 84 hours (i.e. at the 7th milking) after the last treatment. With other dosing routines, the basis of the veterinary surgeons advice should be that milk may be taken for human consumption only after the same time period from the last treatment (i.e. with three times daily milking, milk for human consumption may only be taken at the 10th milking).
Not for use in sheep producing milk for human consumption.
Animals must not be slaughtered for human consumption during treatment.
Cattle may be slaughtered for human consumption only after 23 days from the last treatment. Sheep and pigs may be slaughtered for human consumption only after 16 days from the last treatment.
Occasionally local tissue reaction may occur with use of Amoxycare LA.
Not effective against beta-lactamase producing organisms.
Amoxycillin, like other penicillins, should not be administered orally or parenterally in rabbits, hamsters, gerbils and guinea pigs.
Not for use in known cases of hypersensitivity to penicillins or cephalosporins.
Operator warnings - Penicillin/Cephalosporin Sensitivity
Penicillin and cephalosporins may cause hypersensitivity (allergy) following injection, inhalation, ingestion or skin contact. Hypersensitivity to penicillins may lead to cross-reactions to cephalosporins and vice versa. Allergic reactions to these substances may occasionally be serious.
1. Do not handle this product if you know you are sensitised, or if you have been advised not to work with such preparations.

3. If you develop symptoms following exposure such as a skin rash, you should seek medical advice and show the doctor this warning. Swelling of the face, lips or eyes or difficulty with breathing, are more serious symptoms and require urgent medical attention.
