CAUTION:
Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian. Federal law prohibits the extra-label use of this drug in food-producing animals. For use in cats only.
PRECAUTIONS:
The use of fluoroquinolones in cats has been associated with the development of retinopathy and/or blindness. Such products should be used with caution in cats.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION:
Do not use in Dogs. The use of fluoroquinolones in cats has been associated with the development of retinopathy and/or blindness. Such products should be used with caution in cats. The safety of pradofloxacin in cats younger than 12 weeks of age, used for breeding, or that are pregnant and/or lactating has not been evaluated. Quinolones should be used with caution in animals with known or suspected central nervous system (CNS) disorders. In such animals, quinolones have, in rare instances, been associated with CNS stimulation that may lead to convulsive seizures. The safety of pradofloxacin in immune-compromised cats (i.e., cats infected with feline leukemia virus and/or feline immunodeficiency virus) has not been evaluated. The administration of pradofloxacin for longer than 7 days induced reversible leukocyte, neutrophil and lymphocyte decreases in healthy, 12-week-old kittens.
