ADVERSE REACTIONS
Itraconazole generally has a narrow margin of safety in birds.
Vomiting, loss of appetite and loss of weight have commonly been
observed in treated birds, however, these
adverse reactions are usually mild and dose related. If vomiting, loss
of appetite or loss of weight occurs,
then in the first instance it is advisable to lower the dose (see
section “Special warnings”) or treatment with
the veterinary medicine should be discontinued.
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)
- 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).

and therefore the product should
only be used with care in this species and if no alternative treatment
is available and with the lowest
recommended dose for the whole of the recommended treatment period.
Other Psittaciformes also appear less tolerant to itraconazole than
other birds. Therefore if suspected
adverse reactions such as emesis, anorexia or weight loss occur, the
dose should be lowered, or
treatment with the medicinal product should be discontinued.
Where there is more than one bird in the home/cage, all infected and
treated birds should be separated
from other birds.
