Zodon Tablets for Dogs are chewable, flavoured tablets containing Clindamycin, and are used in dogs for:
- the treatment of infected wounds and abscesses, and oral cavity infections including periodontal disease
- the treatment of superficial pyoderma
- the treatment of osteomyelitis
Contraindications:
- Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to the active substance or to any of the excipients or to lincomycin
- Do not administer to rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, chinchillas, horses or ruminants because ingestion of clindamycin by these species may result in severe gastro-intestinal disturbance.
Use during pregnancy and lactation:
While high dose studies in rats suggest that clindamycin is not a teratogen and does not significantly affect the breeding performance of males and females, safety in gestating bitches or breeding male dogs has not been established.
Clindamycin crosses the placental and the blood-milk barrier.
Treatment of lactating females can cause diarrhoea in puppies. Use the product only according to the benefit/risk assessment by the responsible veterinarian.
The use of the product is not recommended in neonates.
