when administered in combination with behaviour modification

(obsessive compulsive disorder).
INTRODUCTION
Virbac encourages you to take time to read this package
insert which describes the use of CLOMICALM (clomipramine
hydrochloride) to treat certain behavioural concerns in dogs.
CLOMICALM tablets are only available through veterinarians.
DESCRIPTION
Brownish-grey, divisible tablet, scored on both sides. The active
ingredient in CLOMICALM tablets are clomipramine hydrochloride.
The active ingredient in vivo is clomipramine and its major
metabolite, desmethylclomipramine. Both clomipramine and
desmethylclomipramine contribute to the broad-spectrum of
action of CLOMICALM tablets by blocking the neuronal re-uptake
of both noradrenaline and serotonin (5-HT). CLOMICALM tablets
therefore possess the properties of both a tricyclic antidepressant
and a serotonin re-uptake inhibitor.
INDICATIONS
Treatment of anxieties. Treatment of stereotypies (obsessive
compulsive disorders) such as lick dermatitis.
