Identifying features
Name: ilium Meloxicam Anti-Inflammatory Oral Suspension for Dogs – 30 mL pack size
APVMA Registration Number: 60023

Reason for recall
Some units in batch 240748A have an incorrect leaflet (ilium Meloxicam 0.5 anti-inflammatory oral suspension for cats) enclosed. All other aspects of the product are in order (contents, label, carton, syringe).
Hazard
Following the dosing instructions from the incorrect leaflet (for use in cats, rather than dogs) could potentially lead to under dosing in dogs and therefore reduced efficacy. However, the information provided on both the label and carton are in order.
What to do
Wholesalers should immediately quarantine all stock on hand of the recalled batch (240748A). Troy (details included below) will provide advice on management of affected units and arrangements for replacement. Veterinarians will be provided with replacement leaflets for affected units.
