Owner Handling & Safety
Accidental ingestion, especially by a child, may lead to the occurrence of tachycardia, orthostatic hypotension, flushing of the face and headaches. Do not leave a filled syringe unattended. This product may cause eye or skin irritation.
Contraindications & Warnings
Do not use pimobendan in hypertrophic cardiomyopathies or in diseases in which an improvement in cardiac output cannot be achieved for functional or anatomical reasons (e.g., aortic stenosis). Since pimobendan is metabolised mainly via the liver, it should not be used in dogs with severe impairment of liver function. Do not use in cases of hypersensitivity to pimobendan or to any of the excipients.
Use in Pregnancy & Lactation
Laboratory studies in rats and rabbits have not produced any evidence of teratogenic or foetotoxic effects. However, these studies have shown evidence of maternotoxic and embryotoxic effects at high doses and have also shown that pimobendan is excreted into milk.
