Guidelines:

1. Use a relatively high dose of PHENYLBUTAZONE for the first 48 hours, then reduce gradually to a maintenance dose. Maintain lowest dose capable of producing desired clinical response.

2. Response to PHENYLBUTAZONE therapy is prompt, usually occurring within 24 hours. If no significant clinical response is evident after 5 days, re-evaluate diagnosis and therapeutic approach.

3. In animals, PHENYLBUTAZONE is largely metabolized in 8 hours. It is recommended that one third of the daily dose be administered at 8 hour intervals. Reduce dosage as symptoms regress. In some cases, treatment may be given only when symptoms appear with no need for continuous medication. If long-term therapy is planned, oral administration is therefore suggested.

4. Many chronic conditions will respond to p PHENYLBUTAZONE therapy, but discontinued treatment may result in recurrence of symptoms.

Possible side effects: Stop medication at the first sign of gastrointestinal upset, jaundice, or blood dyscrasia. Authenticated cases of agranulocytosis associated with the drug have occurred in man, fatal reactions, although rare, have been reported in dogs after long-term therapy. To guard against this possibility, conduct routine blood counts at weekly intervals during the early phase of therapy and at intervals of two weeks thereafter. Any significant fall in the total white count, black or tarry stools or relative decrease in granulocytes should be regarded as a signal for immediate cessation of therapy and institution of appropriate countermeasures.
