Special precautions for use in animals
Using penethamate hydriodide for the treatment of mastitis must be accompanied by hygienic measures to prevent reinfection.
Where local (regional, farm-level), epidemiological information indicate possible reduced susceptibility of the relevant strains of the bacterial species involved in mastitis, use of the product should be based on susceptibility testing on bacteria isolated from diseased animals.
The veterinary medicinal product is not effective against beta-lactamase producing organisms.
Official national and regional antimicrobial policies should be taken into account when the product is used.
Use of the product deviating from the instructions given in the SPC may increase the prevalence of bacteria resistant to benzylpenicillin and may decrease the effectiveness of treatment with other beta-lactam antimicrobials due to the potential for cross-resistance.
Operator warnings
Penicillins 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.

Handle this product with great care to avoid exposure.
