Q:  What if my animal licks and swallows Aviv, even a whole container?

A:  Other than issues related to swallowing the container itself, if that is the case, there should not be any problem if Aviv is ingested.  The labeling says "Do not ingest" because the product is not for internal application.  There have been no issues / symptoms to date with ingestion of Aviv.  Nothing needs to be done unless the animal is experiencing symptoms of distress that may not be related to Aviv ingestion.  As with any condition, if symptoms warrant, see a veterinarian immediately.

Shelf life of opened containers is not an issue if the "Directions" section printed on the label of the bottle or tube are followed:  "Discard any unused portion."  Please follow these directions and use only as directed.
