(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On September 18, 2014 the owner noticed the cat developed symptoms. On September 26, 2014 the owner contacted the Animal Product Safety Service (APSS). The owner stated she took the cat to the veterinarian where antibiotics were sent home. The APSS veterinarian stated s-methoprene is an insect growth regulator (IGR). The APSS veterinarian also stated primary concerns from topical administration are for mild dermal irritation and redness, usually from the carriers. The APSS technician recommended continuing treatment and calling back with questions.
Moderate
A follow up was not performed, because the owner did not want advice from the APSS veterinarians since we are associated with the company that makes the product. Therefore, the outcome of this case is unknown. The APSS technician stated that we are not associated with the company, but take their animal medical calls and document everything for the company. The owner stated she had all the information about reimbursement.
