Precautions and contraindications:
Aseptic precautions must be observed when using the product.
Administer very slowly when the injection is given intravenously. Too rapid injection may cause nausea and distress. If this occurs, discontinue until animal returns to normal and continue at slower rate.
The product should be at normal body temperature when administered.
When administered to calves or young pigs by the subcutaneous route, pain may occur at the injection site. This is usually of a transient nature. Care should be taken to reduce such reactions to a minimum. For welfare reasons it is essential that adequate instructions are given to operators.
As some vitamins are sensitive to oxidising substances and/or pH changes, Duphalyte should not be mixed for administration with any other product. For this reason it is recommended not to mix Duphalyte with other medicinal products. Excessive or continuous usage should be avoided because of interactions with dietary vitamins or minerals.
