Potential Side Effects and Precautions

Monitor swine closely for diarrhea, a common side effect. Reduce dosage or temporarily discontinue Lincomycin if this occurs. Severe diarrhea necessitates immediate veterinary attention.

Observe for any signs of allergic reaction, such as skin rash or swelling. Immediately contact your veterinarian if you suspect an allergic reaction. Discontinue Lincomycin and provide supportive care as directed.

Lincomycin may affect liver function. Routine liver function tests are recommended during prolonged treatment. Adjust treatment based on test results.

Avoid using Lincomycin concurrently with other antibiotics, especially clindamycin, due to potential interactions. Consult your veterinarian for appropriate antibiotic combinations.

Always follow the prescribed dosage and duration of treatment. Incorrect use can lead to antibiotic resistance. Strictly adhere to withdrawal times before sending animals to market.

Store Lincomycin according to label instructions to maintain efficacy and safety. Proper storage prevents degradation and ensures product quality.

Consult your veterinarian before using Lincomycin in pregnant or lactating sows. They can assess potential risks and benefits for the sow and her offspring.
