Summary for the public


What is Reconcile?

Reconcile is a veterinary medicine containing the active substance fluoxetine. It is available as chewable tablets containing 8 mg, 16 mg, 32 mg or 64 mg fluoxetine.


What is Reconcile used for?

Reconcile is used, in combination with behavioural modification techniques, to assist in the treatment of dogs that have behavioural problems (separation anxiety) caused by separation from their owners, their normal home, or other dogs. These behavioural problems might be expressed by excessive barking or howling, inappropriate defecation or urination in the house, or destruction of their surroundings. Reconcile should not be used on its own but only in dogs that are also undergoing behavioural therapy.

Reconcile tablets are given once a day. The strength of tablet to be given is based on the dog’s weight, so that the dog is given between 1 to 2 mg per kg of the dog’s bodyweight per day. The tablets are chewable and may be given either with or without food.


How does Reconcile work?

The active substance in Reconcile, fluoxetine, is a selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor (SSRI). It works by preventing the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine) from being taken back up into nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. Neurotransmitters such as serotonin are chemicals that transfer chemical signals from one nerve cell to another. Low levels of serotonin in the central nervous system may be associated with depression, anxiety or aggression. By blocking the re-uptake of serotonin into nerve cells, fluoxetine allows the levels of serotonin to remain higher. This can improve the clinical signs (behavioural problems) of separation-related disorders in dogs. In order to treat a dog with separation anxiety, the animal should not only receive medicines but also behavioural modification therapy. Behavioural modification therapy is the most important part of therapy; however, the use of the medicine allows for a more speedy recovery of the animal patient.


How has Reconcile been studied?

Reconcile has been investigated in four different studies in pet dogs for up to 8 weeks. The effective dose of Reconcile was established in one study. Another study investigated the efficacy of Reconcile in dogs which also received behavioural modification therapy, whilst a similar study looked at the efficacy in dogs that did not receive additional behavioural therapy. In both of those studies the effectiveness of Reconcile was compared with that of placebo (a dummy treatment) for up to 8 weeks. The last study was conducted under “field conditions” in a large number of dogs that were treated for separation anxiety in various veterinary practices, or clinics, in two European countries. All dogs received behavioural therapy and were treated either with Reconcile or with clomipramine (another medicine that can be used to treat dogs with separation-related disorders). The main measure of effectiveness was the change in each of the nine different behaviours recognised as characteristic indicators of separation anxiety in dogs. In all the studies Reconcile was given once a day, either with or without food.


What benefit has Reconcile shown during the studies?

The oral administration of Reconcile tablets, as 1 to 2 mg/kg of fluoxetine once a day, is effective for the treatment of separation anxiety in dogs when used in conjunction with behavioural modification therapy.

The efficacy of Reconcile was higher when compared to placebo when behavioural modification therapy was also given to the dogs. The efficacy was lower when no behavioural modification therapy was given. When given in combination with behavioural modification therapy, approximately 42% of dogs given Reconcile improved within one week, compared to only 17% of the dogs given placebo (plus the behavioural modification therapy). The fluoxetine-treated group continued to have a higher incidence of improvement over the course of the treatment period and by the end of the 8 weeks, approximately 72% of the fluoxetinetreated dogs had shown improved behaviour (a global severity score of 50%).

The field study showed that Reconcile was as effective as clomipramine. In conjunction with behavioural modification therapy, Reconcile showed significant improvements in treating dogs for barking and inappropriate defecation or urination. After 8 weeks, two separation anxiety behaviours were significantly improved in the fluoxetine group (inappropriate defecation and destructive behaviour). Six weeks after the end of treatment, five out of the nine separation anxiety behaviours were still improved in about a third of the treated dogs. The rate of relapse at the end of the post-treatment phase was slightly higher in the fluoxetine group (28%) than in the clomipramine group (23%).


What is the risk associated with Reconcile?

The most common side effects with Reconcile are anorexia (loss of appetite) and lethargy (unresponsiveness). Urinary tract disorders (such as bladder infections, irregular urination and discomfort in passing urine) and central nervous system signs (such as incoordination and disorientation) were also observed. Less commonly, weight loss/loss of condition, dilation of the pupils of the eye and, rarely, seizures were also observed.

To minimize the risk of adverse reactions, the recommended dose of Reconcile should not be exceeded.

For a full list of all side-effects reported with Reconcile, see the Package Leaflet.

Reconcile tablets should not be used in dogs weighing less than 4 kg, or in dogs with epilepsy or with a history of seizures. Reconcile should also not be used in dogs that may be hypersensitive (allergic) to fluoxetine or other SSRIs. Since Reconcile has not been tested in pregnant or lactating bitches, its use is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation.

Reconcile tablets should not be used at the same time as many other medicines, especially medicines that can affect the central nervous system. See the Package Leaflet for full information.


What are the precautions for the person who gives the medicine or comes into contact with the animal?

This veterinary medicine has been developed especially for dogs and is not for use in humans. If a person accidentally takes the medicine, seek medical advice immediately and show the package leaflet or the label to a doctor.


Why has Reconcile been approved?

The Committee for Medicinal Products for Veterinary Use (CVMP) concluded that the benefits of Reconcile exceed the risks when used in combination with behavioural modification techniques as an aid in the treatment of dogs with behavioural problems caused by separation, and recommended that Reconcile be given a marketing authorisation. The benefit-risk balance may be found in module 6 of this EPAR.

2/33
4.4 Special warnings
None.
4.5 Special precautions for use
Special precautions for use in animals
The safety of Reconcile has not been established in dogs under 6 months of age or weighing less than
4 kg.
Though rare, seizures may occur in dogs treated with Reconcile. Treatment should be stopped if
seizures occur.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to
animals
In case of accidental self-administration, seek medical advice immediately and show the package
leaflet or the label to the physician. In humans, the most common symptoms associated with overdose
include seizures, somnolence, nausea, tachycardia, and vomiting.
4.6 Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness)
To minimize the risk of adverse reactions, the recommended dose should not be exceeded.
Reported adverse reactions in dogs include:
- Very common adverse events: decreased appetite (including anorexia); lethargy.
- Common adverse events: urinary tract disorders (cystitis, urinary incontinence, urinary retention,
stranguria); central nervous system signs (incoordination, disorientation).
- Uncommon adverse events: weight loss/loss of condition; mydriasis.
- Rare adverse events: seizures.
4.7 Use during pregnancy, lactation or lay
The safety of the veterinary medicinal product has not been established during pregnancy and
lactation, thus the use is not recommended during pregnancy and lactation.
Laboratory studies in rats and rabbits have not produced any evidence of a teratogenic, foetotoxic or
maternotoxic effect. No effect on the reproductive capacity in male and female rats was noted.
4.8 Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction
Reconcile tablets should not be given concomitantly with veterinary medicinal products that lower the
seizure threshold (e.g. phenothiazines such as acepromazine or chlorpromazine).
Do not use in conjunction with other serotonergic agents (e.g. sertraline) and monoamine oxidase
inhibitors (MAOIs) [e.g., selegiline hydrochloride (L-deprenyl), amitraz] or tricyclic amines (TCAs)
(e.g. amitriptyline and clomipramine).
A 6-week washout interval should be observed following discontinuation of therapy with Reconcile
tablets prior to the administration of any veterinary medicinal product that may adversely interact with
fluoxetine or its metabolite, norfluoxetine.
Fluoxetine is largely metabolised by the P-450 enzyme system, although the precise isoform in dogs is
unknown. Therefore, fluoxetine should be used with caution with other drugs.

PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
Pharmacotherapeutic group: selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI).
ATCvet code: QN06AB03
5.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
Fluoxetine and its active metabolite nor-fluoxetine have been shown to be highly selective inhibitors
of serotonin uptake both in vitro and in vivo . Fluoxetine does not act as a sedative. Fluoxetine inhibits
catecholamine uptake only at high concentrations in vitro and has no effect on catecholamine uptake
in vivo at doses that are used to inhibit serotonin uptake. As a result of inhibiting serotonin uptake,
fluoxetine enhances serotonergic neurotransmission and produces functional effects resulting from
increased activation of serotonin receptors. Fluoxetine lacks any significant affinity for
neurotransmitter receptors, including the muscarinic cholinergic receptor, α adrenergic receptors, or
histaminergic H1 receptors, and does not have direct effects on the heart.
5.2 Pharmacokinetic particulars
Fluoxetine is well absorbed after oral administration (~72%) and the absorption is not affected by
feeding. Fluoxetine is metabolised to norfluoxetine, an equipotent SSRI that contributes to the efficacy
the product.
4/33
In a 21 day study, fluoxetine was administered daily at a dose of 0.75, 1.5 and 3.0 mg/kg to laboratory
Beagles. The maximum plasma concentration (C max ) and area under the plasma concentration time
curve (AUC) for fluoxetine were approximately dose proportional between 0.75 and 1.5 mg/kg, with a
greater than dose proportional increase at 3 mg/kg. After administration, fluoxetine readily appeared
in plasma with mean T max values ranging from 1.25 to 1.75 hours on day 1 and from 2.5 to 2.75 hours
on day 21. Plasma levels readily declined with mean t ½ values ranging from 4.6 to 5.7 hours on day 1
and from 5.1 to 10.1 on day 21. Norfluoxetine plasma levels slowly appeared in plasma and were
slowly eliminated with t ½ values ranging from 44.2 to 48.9 hours on day 21. Norfluoxetine C max and
AUC were generally dose proportional but these values were 3 to 4 hold higher on day 21 than on Day
1.
Accumulation of fluoxetine and norfluoxetine occurred following multiple doses until reaching a
steady-state within approximately 10 days. Following the last dose administration, fluoxetine and
norfluoxetine plasma levels declined steadily in a log-linear fashion. Elimination studies in dogs have
shown that 29.8% and 44% of the dose was excreted in urine and faeces, respectively by 14 days
following dosing.

Clinical improvement is expected within 1 or 2 weeks. If no improvement is noted within 4 weeks,
consult your veterinary surgeon who will need to re-evaluate the dog’s treatment.

the need for continued treatment beyond 8 weeks or discontinuation of treatment should adverse
events warrant.
Reconcile tablets may be given with or without food and are flavoured so that most dogs will consume
the tablet when offered by the owner.
If a dose is missed, the next scheduled dose should be administered as prescribed.

those not prescribed, as Reconcile tablets should not be given at the same time as many other

Further advice for the veterinary surgeon - see section 4.8 of the Summary of Product Characteristics

In cases of accidental overdose your veterinary surgeon should be consulted immediately and
