4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 TARGET SPECIES
Dogs and cats.
4.2 INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
As an induction agent prior to inhalation anaesthesia. As a sole
anaesthetic agent for the induction and maintenance of
anaesthesia for the performance of examination or surgical procedures.
4.3 CONTRAINDICATIONS
Do not use in combination with other intravenous anaesthetic agents.
Do not use on animals with hypersensitivity to the active substance or
any other excipients.
4.4 SPECIAL WARNINGS FOR EACH TARGET SPECIES
The analgesic properties of alfaxalone are limited, therefore
appropriate peri-operative analgesia should be provided in cases
where procedures are anticipated to be painful.
4.5 SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
(i) Special precautions for use in animals
The safety of the veterinary medicinal product in animals less than 12
weeks of age has not been demonstrated.
Transient post induction apnoea frequently occurs, particularly in
dogs - see section 4.6 for details. In such cases, endotracheal
intubation and oxygen supplementation should be employed. Facilities
for intermittent positive pressure ventilation should be
available. In order to minimise the possibility of apnoea, administer
the veterinary medicinal product by slow intravenous
injection and not as a rapid dose. The use of a preplaced catheter in
dogs and cats is recommended as best practice for
anaesthetic procedures.
