4.5 SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE IN ANIMALS
Use in aged dogs, may involve additional risk. If such a use cannot be
avoided, dogs may require careful clinical management.
Avoid use in any dehydrated, hypovolaemic or hypotensive dog, as there
is a potential risk of increased renal toxicity.
Concurrent administration of potential nephrotoxic drugs should be
avoided.
NSAIDs can cause inhibition of phagocytosis and hence in the treatment
of inflammatory conditions associated with bacterial
infection, appropriate concurrent antimicrobial therapy should be
instigated.
Do not administer other NSAIDs concurrently or within 24 hours of each
other. Some NSAIDs may be highly bound to plasma
proteins and compete with other highly bound drugs, which can lead to
toxic effects.
