Propantheline Bromide
別名: Pro-Banthine
> **Important:** Propantheline is used to treat diarrhea, urinary incontinence, or slow heart rates. It works by relaxing smooth muscles and decreasing gland secretions. * **Dry Mouth:** Your pet may experience a dry mouth. This can be relieved by applying small amounts of water to your animal's tongue for 10-15 minutes. * **Monitor for Worsening Signs:** Protracted vomiting and diarrhea can be serious. Contact your veterinarian immediately if symptoms are not alleviated or if they worsen. * **Other Side Effects:** Watch for constipation, difficulty urinating, or a racing heart rate. Cats may occasionally drool or vomit after taking this medication. * **Administration:** Give exactly as prescribed. Do not stop the medication abruptly without consulting your veterinarian.
劑量必須由獸醫按你寵物的個別情況決定。切勿在沒有獸醫指導下給予人類藥物或其他寵物的處方藥。
