Mirataz contains the following inactive ingredients: Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) 400, PEG 3350, Diethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether, PEG-8 Caprylic/Capric Glycerides, Oleyl Alcohol, Butylated Hydroxytoluene, Dimethicone, and Dry Flo TS. Mirataz (mirtazapine transdermal ointment) is indicated for the management of weight loss in cats. - CAUTIONS/WARNINGS:Mirataz (mirtazapine transdermal ointment) is for topical use in cats only under veterinary supervision. Do not use in cats with a known hypersensitivity to mirtazapine or any of the excipients. Do not use in cats treated with monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs). Not for human use. Keep out of reach of children. Wear gloves when handling/applying, wash hands after and avoid contact between the treated cat and people or other animals for 2 hours following application. Use with caution in cats with hepatic and kidney disease. Cats food intake should be monitored upon discontinuation. Safety has not been evaluated in cats less than 2 kg, less than six months of age or in breeding, pregnant or lactating cats. The most common adverse reactions observed during clinical trials were application site reactions, behavioral abnormalities (vocalization and hyperactivity) and vomiting. - DIRECTIONS:Administer topically by applying a 1.5-inch ribbon of ointment (approximately 2 mg/cat) on the inner pinna of the cats ear once daily for 14 days (see Diagrams on product). Wear disposable gloves when applying Mirataz. Dispose of used gloves after each application. Alternate the daily application of Mirataz between the left and right inner pinna of the ears. Do not administer into the external ear canal. If desired, the inner pinna of the cats ear may be cleaned by wiping with a dry tissue or cloth immediately prior to the next scheduled dose. If a dose is missed, apply Mirataz the following day and resume daily dosing. To demonstrate the method of administering the dose, the veterinarian or trained personnel at the clinic should apply the first dose in the presence of the owner. After application, care should be taken that people or other animals in the household do not come in contact with the treated cat for 2 hours because mirtazapine can be absorbed transdermally and orally. - INGREDIENTS:See Product for details - MATERIAL/COMP:Liquid - HEIGHT(INCHES): 1.800 - WIDTH(INCHES):4.700 - LENGTH(INCHES):1.300
