19. Provide supplemental information here

Assessment: This product has a wide margin of safety in cats following topical use. Even if accidentally ingested during bathing, only mild GI upset would be expected. The concentration of pyrethrins in the product is very low and not expected to cause neurological signs or death in a cat. Very limited information was provided. Other causes including exposure to a high concentration pyrethroid-containing product and underlying disease must also be considered in this case. Without more information further classification regarding causality cannot be made. The information contained in this report is based on self-reported statements provided to the registrant during telephone interview(s). These self-reported descriptions of an incident have not been independently verified to be factually correct or complete descriptions of the incident. For that reason, information contained in this report does not and cannot form the basis for a determination of whether the reported clinical effects are causally related to exposure to the product identified in the telephone interviews.
