i) Special precautions for safe use in animals
Because phenylpropanolamine is a sympathomimetic agent, it may affect the
cardiovascular system, especially blood pressure and heart rate, and should
therefore be used with caution in animals with cardiovascular disease.
Administration to dogs with hyperthyroidism should be made with caution as the risk of
arrhythmias is increased.
Caution should be exercised when treating animals with severe renal or hepatic
insufficiency, diabetes mellitus, hyperadrenocorticism, glaucoma or other metabolic
disorders.
