SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR USE IN ANIMALS
As thiamazole can cause haemoconcentration, cats should always have
access to drinking water.
If more than 10 mg 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 condition may
occur.
Haematology must be monitored due to risk of leucope
