Clomicalm 80mg Tablets- 30 Count Bottle(Green)

CLOMICALM TABLETS

CAUTION: US Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian.

DESCRIPTION:

Clomicalm is a tricyclic antidepressant (clomipramine) used to treat separation anxiety in dogs. Destructive and negative behaviors like vocalization, inappropriate urination and defecation, and moodiness caused by anxiety are minimized when your dog is treated with Clomicalm.

USES:

Clomicalm (clomipramine) reduces the clinical signs of separation anxiety by affecting serotonergic and noradrenergic neuronal transmission in the central nervous system.

WARNINGS:

Not for use in humans. Keep out of reach of children. In case of accidental ingestion seek medical attention immediately. In children, accidental ingestion should be regarded as serious. There is no specific antidote for clomipramine. Overdose in humans causes anticholinergic effects including effects on the central nervous (e.g., convulsions) and cardiovascular (e.g., arrhythmia, tachycardia) systems. People with known hypersensitivity to clomipramine should administer the product with caution.

PRECAUTIONS:

General: CLOMICALM Tablets are not recommended for other behavior problems, such as aggression (see Adverse Reactions). Studies to establish the safety and efficacy of CLOMICALM Tablets in dogs less than 6 months of age have not been conducted.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:

The recommended daily dose of CLOMICALM Tablets is 2 to 4 mg/kg/day (0.9-1.8 mg/lb/day) (see dosing table below). It can be administered as a single daily dose or divided twice daily based on patient response and/or tolerance of the side effects. It may be prudent to initiate treatment in divided doses to minimize side effects by permitting tolerance to side effects to develop or allowing the patient time to adapt if tolerance does not develop. To reduce the incidence of vomiting that may be experienced by some dogs, CLOMICALM Tablets may be given with a small amount of food.

STORAGE CONDITIONS: Store in a dry place at controlled room temperature, between 59° and 77°F (15-25°C). Store unused tablets in the original closed container.
