Contra-indications, warnings, etc
Do not exceed the stated dose or the duration of treatment.
Do not administer other NSAIDs concurrently or within 24 hours of each other.
Use is contraindicated in animals suffering from cardiac, hepatic or renal disease, where there is the possibility of gastrointestinal ulceration or bleeding, or where there is evidence of blood dyscrasia or hypersensitivity to the product.
Do not use this preparation for cats.
Use in animals less than 6 weeks of age, or in aged animals, may involve additional risk. If such use cannot be avoided, animals may require a reduced dosage and careful clinical management.
Avoid use in dehydrated, hypovolaemic or hypotensive animals as there is a potential risk of increased renal toxicity.
Some NSAIDS may be highly bound to plasma proteins and compete with other highly bound drugs to produce an increase in non-bound pharmacologically active concentrations, which can lead to toxic effects.
Concurrent administration of potentially nephrotoxic drugs should be avoided.
There are no known contraindications for use during pregnancy.
If you notice any serious effects or other effects not mentioned in the data sheet, please inform your veterinary surgeon.
