side effects. When I started Ember on it, my vet told me
that she might get nauseous, but that a reaction like that
Hello Tanya,
I can't blaim you for being nervous about odd behavior in a felv cat.
Interferon can cause side effects in humans that can actually lead to
cessation of treatment, they can include gastrointestinal disturbances,

Anyway thanks again.

My Bailey didn't do well on the interferon either, he was lethargic
and didn't eat well, he also was on the 7 on, 7 off, I finally stopped

cancer. Bailey was positive at 5 months of age when he found me, so
pretty young too.
