The role of cyclo-oxygenase 2 (COX-2) and prostaglandins (PG) in carcinogenesis has been documented in many species. Piroxicam has shown efficacy against several neoplasms and is frequently prescribed for chronic use. There are no studies investigating chronic piroxicam administration in cats and the chronic use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents in this species has long been cautioned against. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate adverse effects in cats receiving long-term daily piroxicam. Seventy-three cats received daily piroxicam at doses of 0.13-0.41mg/kg. Treatment duration ranged from 1 to 38 months. Treatment with piroxicam was found to significantly increase frequency of vomiting during the first month of therapy, though this was most significant for cats receiving concurrent chemotherapy. Piroxicam administration was not significantly associated with hematologic, renal or hepatic toxicities. Adverse events were not correlated with dosage. Adverse events were reported in 29% of cats, and were generally mild and transient. Eight percent discontinued piroxicam due to adverse reaction, and 4% due to difficult administration. This study indicates that long-term daily piroxicam is generally well tolerated in cats at conventional doses.
