ADVERSE REACTIONS
The most commonly reported adverse reactions are mild and transient
modifications of appetite, either
increased (very common) or decreased (very rare). Behavioural changes
such as modification of dog’s
activity or more social behaviour are common. Other adverse reactions
such as transient vomiting
and/or diarrhoea, increased thirst or lethargy occur less commonly.
The enlargement of mammary
glands occurs less commonly and can be associated with lactaction in
very rare cases.
Transient side-effects of changes in the hair coat such as hair loss
or hair modification have been seen
very rarely following administration of Ypozane.
All these adverse reactions are reversible without any specific
treatment.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following
convention:
- very common (more than 1 in 10 animals treated displaying adverse
reaction(s))
- common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals treated
)
- uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals
treated)
25
- rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals
treated)
- very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals treated, including
isolated reports).

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE IN ANIMALS
A transient reduction of plasma cortisol concentration may occur; this
may continue for several weeks
after administration. Appropriate monitoring should be implemented in
dogs under stress (e.g. post-
operative) or those with hypoadrenocorticism. The response to an ACTH
stimulation test may also be
suppressed for several weeks after administration of osaterone.
Use with caution in dogs with a history of liver disease, as safety of
use of the product in these dogs
has not been thoroughly investigated, and
_ _
as treatment of some dogs with liver disease has resulted in
reversible elevation of ALT and ALP in clinical trials.
