CAUTIONS:
PLEASE REMEMBER...

. CHANGE ANIMALINTEX AT LEAST ONCE EVERY 12 HOURS.
wash hands before and after use.

. Do not overlap the ANIMALINTEX as this will create pressure points.

. Do not bandage too tightly.

. Do not apply too hot, i.e. tested on the back of the hand, it should feel comfortable.

. All wounds require tetanus cover. Check vaccinations are current. If not contact your veterinary surgeon.

. For external use on horses and dogs only.

. The over-use of hot wet dressings on a wound or abscess may encourage the development of excessive granulation tissue (proud flesh).

. All medicines should be kept out of reach of children. Store in dry place.

. If adhesive dressings are used on animals they should be discontinued if a skin reaction occurs. This is characterised by soreness, redness, and serum exudate at the site.

. Do not use with medical preparations except on the advice of your veterinary surgeon, who should be consulted before applying ANIMALINTEX to infected wounds.
