Dosierung und Art der Anwendung
For single intra-articular injection: 2.5 ml intra-articularly into medium sized and large joints. More than one joint may be treated at the same time.
A sterile dressing and clean bandage should be applied after injection, as appropriate for the particular joint treated.
If necessary, re-treatment of the joint can be considered at 2-3 weeks after the first-treatment.
Single dose syringes made ready for injection shall be used immediately; any unused portion of a syringe is to be discarded.
Nebenwirkungen
The most commonly reported adverse reaction are transient mild swelling and/or heat occurring in approximately 2.7% of the treated joints. These self-limiting local signs typically resolve spontaneously within 48 hours. However, since the early signs of septic arthritis may be similar, it is advised that a thorough clinical examination and monitoring are carried out if these clinical signs occur. Consideration should be given to appropriate further investigations.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals treated)
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including isolated reports).
