4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 TARGET SPECIES
Dogs.
4.2 INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
For analgesia and reduction of chronic inflammation, for example in
degenerative joint disease, in the dog.
Rimadyl Palatable Tablets can also be used in the management of
post-operative pain.
4.3 CONTRAINDICATIONS

Do not use in dogs suffering from cardiac, hepatic or renal disease,
where there is a possibility of gastro-intestinal ulceration or
bleeding, or where there is evidence of blood dyscrasia or
hypersensitivity to the product.

toxic effects.
4.4 SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES

bacterial infection, appropriate concurrent antimicrobial
