SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
Special precautions for use in animals
If more than 10 mg of thiamazole per day is required animals should be
monitored particularly carefully.
Use of the product in cats with renal dysfunction should be subject to
careful
risk:benefit assessment by the clinician. Due to the effect thiamazole
can
have on reducing the glomerular filtration rate, the effect of therapy
on renal
function should be monitored closely as deterioration of an underlying
renal
impairment may occur.
Haematology must be monitored due to risk of leucopenia or haemolytic
anaemia before initiating treatmen
