Do not skip a dose or administer too much. Pay strict attention to your veterinarian's instructions. Keep out of the reach of animals and children.

Before beginning atropine therapy, consult a veterinarian to go over all of your pet's medications. This drug is not well tolerated by cats and certain dogs.
