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. 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. See section 4.8. The tablets are flavoured. In order to avoid any accidental ingestion, store tablets out of reach of the animals. Special precaut Citiți documentul complet
