Use the italic version of the font.

In case you're wondering, the italic/bold that you can select on fonts in, say 
Windows, are generated on-the-fly if the italic/bold versions of that font 
are not available. Have a look through your fonts directory and you'll see 
the font names ending with *n, *i, *b, meaning normal, italic, bold 
respectively.
