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
