  6. ADVERSE REACTIONS


    Typical adverse drug reactions of Non Sterioidal Anit-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) such as loss of appetite, vomiting, diarrhoea, faecal occult blood, apathy and renal failure have occasionally been reported. These side effects occur generally within the first treatment week and are in most cases transient and disappear following termination of the treatment but in very rare cases may be serious or fatal. In some dogs sneezing, coughing/gagging or drooling may be observed immediately after treatment administration.


    The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:

    • very common (more than 1 in 10 animals displaying adverse reaction(s) during the course of one treatment)

    • common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals)

    • uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals )

    • rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals)

    • very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports).


    If you notice any serious effects or other effects not mentioned in this package leaflet, please inform your veterinary surgeon.

The mist should be directed to the back and towards the gums and/or inner cheek, mucosal surfaces. The pump should be depressed fully, ensuring no mist escapes from the mouth.

    * For the initial treatment of a single dose of 0.2 mg meloxicam/kg body weight, the above maintenance doses should be doubled.


    For longer term treatment, once a clinical response has been observed (after ≥ 4 days), the dose of the product can be adjusted to the lowest effective individual dose reflecting that the degree of pain and inflammation associated with chronic musculo-skeletal disorders may vary over time.


    A clinical response is normally seen within 3-4 days. Treatment should be discontinued after 10 days at the latest if no clinical improvement is apparent.

    authorised

    If adverse reactions occur, treatment should be discontinued and the advice of the veterinarian should be sought.

    Avoid use in any dehydrated, hypovolaemic or hypotensive animal, as there is a potential risk of increased renal toxicity.

    Use during pregnancy and lactation: See section "Contraindications".


    Interactions with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction:

    Other NSAIDs, diuretics, anticoagulants, aminoglycoside antibiotics and substances with high protein binding may compete for binding and thus lead to toxic effects. RevitaCAM must not be administered in conjunction with other NSAIDs or glucocorticosteroids.

    no

    Pre-treatment with anti-inflammatory substances may result in additional or increased adverse effects and accordingly a treatment-free period with such veterinary medicinal products should be observed for at least 24 hours before commencement of treatment. The treatment-free period, however, should take into account the pharmacological properties of the products used previously.


    Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes):

    In case of overdose symptomatic treatment should be initiated.
