Deep wounds and abscesses due to Bacteroides fragilis, Prevotella melaninogenicus, Fusobacterium necrophorum and Clostridium perfringens.

CONTRAINDICATIONS
ANTIROBE Capsules and ANTIROBE AQUADROPS Liquid are contraindicated in animals with a history of hypersensitivity to preparations containing clindamycin or lincomycin.
Because of potential adverse gastrointestinal effects, do not administer to rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs, horses, chinchillas or ruminating animals.
WARNINGS
Keep out of reach of children. Not for human use.
PRECAUTIONS
During prolonged therapy of one month or greater, periodic liver and kidney function tests and blood counts should be performed.
The use of ANTIROBE occasionally results in overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms such as clostridia and yeasts. Therefore, the administration of ANTIROBE should be avoided in those species sensitive to the gastrointestinal effects of clindamycin (see CONTRAINDICATIONS). Should superinfections occur, appropriate measures should be taken as indicated by the clinical situation.
Patients with very severe renal disease and/or very severe hepatic disease accompanied by severe metabolic aberrations should be dosed with caution, and serum clindamycin levels monitored during high-dose therapy. Clindamycin hydrochloride has been shown to have neuromuscular blocking properties that may enhance the action of other neuromuscular blocking agents. Therefore, ANTIROBE should be used with caution in animals receiving such agents.
Safety in gestating bitches and queens or breeding male dogs and cats has not been established.
ADVERSE REACTIONS
Side effects occasionally observed in either clinical trials or during clinical use were vomiting and diarrhea. To report adverse reactions or a suspected adverse reaction call 1-800-793-0596.
