If you have difficulty giving the medication, contact your veterinarian. This medication should only be given to the pet for whom it was prescribed.
Clemastine works by blocking the actions of histamine in the body. Histamine is the chemical responsible for many of the symptoms seen when an allergic reaction occurs. Clemastine belongs to a group of antihistamines called H1 blockers.
Clemastine will not cure allergies, but can help reduce the symptoms. The effects will disappear if the medication is discontinued. Results may not be immediate and it can take several weeks to see improvement.

Talk to your veterinarian about what tests and exams may be necessary while your pet is taking Clemastine. Also, discuss how long the treatment period will be and what type of outcome is expected. You and your veterinarian should talk about any other treatment options that are recommended for your pet.

Tell your veterinarian if your pet has prostate disease, urinary obstruction, heart disease, glaucoma, or gastrointestinal obstruction, is pregnant or may be used for breeding.
