(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On unknown date in Jul 2017 the canine passed away. No necropsy was performed.
Death
This case is closed. The intent of the call was to discuss product use on another pet and not to report the death of the dog. N-Unlikely: Death is not expected following appropriate topical product application as inconsistent with products pharmacological profile. Oral exposure to the collar is not expected to cause serious signs either. An overdose of 5 collars around the neck was investigated in adult cats and dogs for an 8 months period and in 10 week old kittens and 7 week old puppies for a 6 months period without causing serious signs. No signs of anaphylaxis reported which would have occurred in close proximity to the collar application. Moreover, the intent of the call was to discuss product use on another pet and not to report the death of the dog. Time to onset is long. Other unrelated causes are more probable. Even though some information is not available (e.g. health status and necropsy report), considering known safety profile of the product a product relation is unlikely.
