Clemastine fumarate was administered to 10 presumed or proven atopic cats to determine its efficacy in controlling their pruritus. Initially, each cat received 0.34 mg orally every twelve hours for 14 days. When none responded satisfactorily, the dosage was increased to 0.68 mg/cat every twelve hours. At that dosage, the pruritus in five cats (50%) was eliminated. Diarrhea was seen in one cat. Under the conditions of the study, clemastine was a useful antipruritic agent for the cat.
