For animal treatment only

As with all penicillins the product may cause hypersensitivity (allergy) following ingestion.

Not to be administered to animals known to be sensitive to penicillin

Not to be administered to small herbivores

Do not treat dogs of less than 10kg bodyweight.

As with all other penicillins, bacterial resistance to ampicillin may occur. Thus, antibiotic sensitivity testing should be considered if a clinical condition fails to respond to treatment within 3 to 5 days.

Penicillins and cephalosporins may cause sensitisation following injection, inhalation, ingestion or skin contact. Sensitivity to penicillins may lead to cross sensitivity to cephalosporins and vice versa.

Allergic reactions to these substances may occasionally be serious.

Do not handle this product if you know that you are sensitized or if you have been advised not to work with such preparations.

Handle this preparation with great care to avoid exposure, taking all recommended precautions. 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.

Wash hands after use.

Ampicare is unlikely to interact significantly with any of the other drugs commonly administered to dogs. It is not recommended to administer bacteriocidal and bacteriostatic antibiotics concomitantly.

No studies have been carried out on pregnant animals, but the evidence provided suggests that ampicillin does not present any particular hazard to the dam or foetus.

Handle this product with great care to avoid exposure taking all recommended precautions.
