therapeutic doses. In the case of extremely high doses it may cause sensitization and
allergic reactions.If drug allergy appears in the animals that come into contact with the
drug, adrenaline is used, and then if necessary, antihistamines and glucocorticoids.
In sows and gilts as a result of giving this drug there may occur vaginal washing and
abortus.Acute allergic reactions to penicillin were found in dogs and cattle.Local allergies
were noticed in the eye and pharynx of the dogs and allergic dermatitis is registered too
.Allergic reactions occur in horses after administration of high doses of drug. At horses,
penicillin given in high doses can cause CNS excitation that is accompanied with
incoordination movements, ataxia, and general restlessness animals.
