  11. SPECIAL STORAGE PRECAUTIONS


    This veterinary medicinal product does not require any special storage conditions. Keep out of the sight and reach of children.

    Do not use after the expiry date (EXP) stated on the carton and the bottle.


  12. SPECIAL WARNING(S)


    If side effects occur, treatment should be discontinued and the advice of a veterinarian should be sought. Avoid use in any dehydrated, hypovolaemic or hypotensive animal, as there is a potential risk of increased renal toxicity. This product for dogs should not be used in cats as it is not suitable for use in this species. In cats, Rheumocam 0.5 mg/ml oral suspension for cats should be used.


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


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


    In the case of overdosage symptomatic treatment should be initiated.


    People with known hypersensitivity to NSAIDs should avoid contact with the veterinary medicinal product.


    In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice immediately and show this package leaflet or the label to the physician.


  13. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR THE DISPOSAL OF UNUSED PRODUCT OR WASTE MATERIAL, IF ANY


    Any unused veterinary medicinal product or waste materials derived from such veterinary medicinal products should be disposed of in accordance with local requirements.

    Maximum number of piercings is 42 for all presentations.


  10. WITHDRAWAL PERIOD(S)


    Not applicable.


  11. SPECIAL STORAGE PRECAUTIONS


    Keep out of the reach and sight of children. Keep the vial in the outer carton.

    Do not use after the expiry date (EXP) stated on the carton and vial. Shelf life after first opening the container: 28 days.


  12. SPECIAL WARNING(S)


    Special precautions for use in animals:

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

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

    toxicity.

    During anaesthesia, monitoring and fluid therapy should be considered as standard practice.

    Any oral follow-up therapy using meloxicam or other Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) should not be administered in cats, as appropriate dosage regimens for such follow-up

    treatments have not been established.


    Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals:

    Accidental self-injection may give rise to pain. People with known hypersensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) should avoid contact with the veterinary medicinal product.

    In case of accidental self-injection, seek medical advice immediately and show this package leaflet or the label to the physician.


    Use during pregnancy and lactation:

    Do not use in pregnant or lactating animals.


    Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction:

    Other NSAIDs, diuretics, anti-coagulants, aminoglycoside antibiotics and substances with high protein binding may compete for binding and thus lead to toxic effects. Rheumocam must not be administered in conjunction with other NSAIDs or glucocorticosteroids. Concurrent administration of potential nephrotoxic drugs should be avoided. In animals at anaesthetic risk (e.g., aged animals), intravenous or subcutaneous fluid therapy during anaesthesia should be taken into consideration. When anaesthesia and NSAID are concomitantly administered, a risk for renal function cannot be excluded.


    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 the case of overdose, symptomatic treatment should be initiated.


  13. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR THE DISPOSAL OF UNUSED PRODUCT OR WASTE MATERIAL, IF ANY


    Any unused veterinary medicinal product or waste materials derived from such veterinary medicinal product should be disposed of in accordance with local requirements.


  14. DATE ON WHICH THE PACKAGE LEAFLET WAS LAST APPROVED


    Detailed information on this veterinary medicinal product is available on the website of the European Medicines Agency (https://www.ema.europa.eu/).

  7. TARGET SPECIES


    Cats.


  8. DOSAGE FOR EACH SPECIES, ROUTE(S) AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION


    Oral use.


    Post-operative pain and inflammation following surgical procedures:

    After initial treatment with Rheumocam 5 mg/ml solution for injection for cats, continue treatment 24 hours later with Rheumocam 0.5 mg/ml oral suspension for cats at a dosage of 0.05 mg

    meloxicam/kg body weight. The oral follow-up dose may be administered once daily (at 24-hour

    intervals) for up to 4 days.


    Acute musculo-skeletal disorders:

    Initial treatment is a single oral dose of 0.2 mg meloxicam/kg body weight on the first day. Treatment is to be continued once daily by oral administration (at 24-hour intervals) at a dose of 0.05 mg meloxicam/kg body weight for as long as acute pain and inflammation persist.


    Chronic musculo-skeletal disorders:

    Initial treatment is a single oral dose of 0.1 mg meloxicam/kg body weight on the first day. Treatment is to be continued once daily by oral administration (at 24-hour intervals) at a maintenance dose of

    0.05 mg meloxicam/kg body weight.

    A clinical response is normally seen within 7 days. Treatment should be discontinued after 14 days at the latest if no clinical improvement is apparent.


    Route and method of administration

    To be administered orally either mixed with food or directly into the mouth.

    The syringe fits onto the drop dispenser of the bottle and has a kg-body weight scale which corresponds to the dose of 0.05 mg meloxicam/kg bodyweight. Thus for initiation of the treatment of

    chronic musculo-skeletal disorders on the first day, twice the maintenance volume will be required.

    For initiation of the treatment of acute musculo-skeletal disorders on the first day, 4 times the maintenance volume will be required.


  9. ADVICE ON CORRECT ADMINISTRATION


    Particular care should be taken with regard to the accuracy of dosing. The recommended dose should not be exceeded.

    Please carefully follow the instructions of the veterinarian.

    Avoid introduction of contamination during use.


  10. WITHDRAWAL PERIOD(S)


    Not applicable.


  11. SPECIAL STORAGE PRECAUTIONS


    Keep out of the sight and reach of children.

    This veterinary medicinal product does not require any special storage conditions.

    Do not use this veterinary medicinal product after the expiry date which is stated on the carton and the bottle after EXP.

    Shelf life after first opening of the container:

    3 ml and 5 ml bottles: 14 days

    10 ml and 15 ml bottles: 6 months.


  12. SPECIAL WARNING(S)


    Special precautions for use in animals:

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


    Post-operative pain and inflammation following surgical procedures:

    In case additional pain relief is required, multimodal pain therapy should be considered.


    Chronic musculoskeletal disorders:

    Response to long-term therapy should be monitored at regular intervals by a veterinary surgeon.


    Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals:

    People with known hypersensitivity to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) should avoid contact with the veterinary medicinal product.

    In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical advice immediately and show this package leaflet or the label to the physician.


    Pregnancy and lactation:

    The safety of the veterinary medicinal product has not been established during pregnancy and lactation. See section "Contraindications".


    Interaction 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. Rheumocam must not be administered

    in conjunction with other NSAIDs or glucocorticosteroids. Concurrent administration of potential

    nephrotoxic veterinary medicinal products should be avoided.


    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):

    Meloxicam has a narrow therapeutic safety margin in cats and clinical signs of overdose may be seen at relatively small overdose levels.

    In case of overdose, adverse reactions, as listed in section "Adverse reactions", are expected to be more severe and more frequent. In case of overdose symptomatic treatment should be initiated.


    Incompatibilities:

    In the absence of compatibility studies, this veterinary medicinal product must not be mixed with other veterinary medicinal products.


  13. SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR THE DISPOSAL OF UNUSED PRODUCT OR WASTE MATERIAL, IF ANY


    Ask your veterinary surgeon how to dispose of medicines no longer required. These measures should help to protect the environment.
