請諮詢您的獸醫以了解正確的劑量和療程。警告
Metacam 口服懸浮液僅適用於狗。請勿用於有血便或已有腎臟和肝臟疾病的狗。正在服用其他非類固醇抗發炎藥（卡洛芬、依托度酸、非羅考昔、德拉考昔）、阿斯匹靈或皮質類固醇（潑尼松、甲基潑尼松龍、地塞米松）的狗，發生不良副作用的可能性較大。請向您的獸醫詢問更多資訊。預防措施
尚未評估 Metacam 口服混懸液在 6 個月以下的犬隻、用於繁殖的犬隻、懷孕或哺乳期犬隻的安全使用。不建議將美洛昔康用於患有出血性疾病的狗，因為尚未確定患有這些疾病的狗的安全性。腎毒性風險最大的患者是那些脫水、同時接受利尿治療的患者，或患有腎臟、心血管和/或肝功能障礙的患者。應謹慎對待潛在腎毒性藥物的同時給藥。由於非類固醇抗發炎藥有可能誘發胃腸道潰瘍和/或穿孔，因此應避免與其他抗發炎藥物（例如非類固醇抗發炎藥或皮質類固醇）同時使用。如果在服用美達康口服混懸液每日總劑量後需要額外的止痛藥，應考慮使用非 NSAID 或非皮質類固醇類止痛藥。不建議使用另一種 NSAID。當狗從皮質類固醇使用或從一種非類固醇抗發炎藥轉換為另一種非類固醇抗發炎藥時，請考慮適當的清洗時間。尚未在狗身上研究過與 Metacam 口服混懸液同時使用蛋白質結合藥物的情況。常用的蛋白質結合藥物包括心臟藥物、抗驚厥藥物和行為藥物。尚未評估可能抑制美達康口服懸浮液代謝的併用藥物的影響。對於需要輔助治療的患者，應監測藥物相容性。食物和藥物的相互作用
應避免與另一種非類固醇抗發炎藥、皮質類固醇或腎毒性藥物同時使用。與食物一起給予。人類警告
不適用於人類。請將本品和所有藥物放在兒童接觸不到的地方可能的副作用
非類固醇抗發炎藥可能與胃腸道、腎臟或肝臟副作用有關。現場研究中報告最常見的副作用是嘔吐和軟便/腹瀉。這些通常是輕微的，但也可能很嚴重。如果出現副作用，寵物主人應停止治療並聯絡獸醫。產品管理

Metacam Oral Suspension is for use in dogs only.Do not use on dogs that have bloody stool or with pre-existing kidney and liver conditions.Dogs that are taking other NSAIDs (carprofen, etodolac, firocoxib, deracoxib), aspirin, or corticosteroids (prednisone,methylprednisolone, dexamethasone), there is a greater chance of adverse side effects to occur. Ask your veterinarian for more information.
Precautions
The safe use of Metacam Oral Suspension in dogs younger than 6 months of age, dogs used for breeding, or in pregnant or lactating dogs has not been evaluated. Meloxicam is not recommended for use in dogs with bleeding disorders, as safety has not been established in dogs with these disorders. Patients at greatest risk for renal toxicity are those that are dehydrated, on concomitant diuretic therapy, or those with existing renal, cardiovascular, and/or hepatic dysfunction. Concurrent administration of potentially nephrotoxic drugs should be carefully approached. Since NSAIDs possess the potential to induce gastrointestinal ulcerations and/or perforations, concomitant use with other anti-inflammatory drugs, such as NSAIDs or corticosteroids, should be avoided. If additional pain medication is needed after administration of the total daily dose of Metacam Oral Suspension, a non-NSAID or non-corticosteroid class of analgesia should be considered. The use of another NSAID is not recommended. Consider appropriate washout times when switching from corticosteroid use or from one NSAID to another in dogs. The use of concomitantly protein-bound drugs with Metacam Oral Suspension has not been studied in dogs. Commonly used protein-bound drugs include cardiac, anticonvulsant and behavioral medications. The influence of concomitant drugs that may inhibit metabolism of Metacam Oral Suspension has not been evaluated. Drug compatibility should be monitored in patients requiring adjunctive therapy.
Food and Drug Interactions
Concurrent use with another NSAID, corticosteroid, or nephrotoxic medication should be avoided. Give with food.
Human Warnings
Not for use in humans. Keep this and all medications out of reach of children
Possible Side Effects
NSAIDs may be associated with gastrointestinal, kidney, or liver side effects. The most common side effects reported in field studies were vomiting and soft stool/diarrhea. These are usually mild, but may be serious. If side effects occur, pet owners should halt therapy and contact their veterinarian.
