(p.ex. description des symptômes tels que la fréquence et la gravité
On 03/26/2013, sponsor was contacted to report an apparent adverse reaction to the PREVENTIC (25 /9% Amitraz) Tick Collar for Dogs. According to the veterinarian, the dog was seen at the clinic for the first time on 01/28/2013 for a wellness exam, vaccinations, and a heartworm test (negative). The clinic administered a Proheart injection (unspecified reason) and applied the PREVENTIC collar to the dog for tick prevention. The animal owner contacted the clinic on 03/23/2013 to report that she had found the dog dead in her run on 02/10/2013. The animal owner indicated the dog had seemed fine the day prior and was energetic when seeing the animal owner. The veterinarian indicated she had not heard from the animal owner until 03/23/2013 when another one of the animal owner's dogs died. Per the veterinarian, the animal owner had taken the collar off of the first dog after it passed away on 02/10/2013 and applied it to the second dog on 02/11/2013. This dog was found dead in the animal owner's yard on 03/23/2013. The veterinarian reported that the animal owner contacted the clinic because the PREVENTIC Collar was the only thing the two dogs shared. Sponsor discussed with the veterinarian the mode of action of the collar and confirmed that the collar had not been chewed on. The veterinarian reported she did not think the deaths were related to the PREVENTIC collar and stated that both of the dogs live out in the country and it could have been anything that caused the events. Neither dog had a necropsy performed, per the veterinarian. No further information is expected. See case 2013-US-03429 for the second dog.
Mort
Sponsor veterinarian noted the adverse event was not likely attributable to the product. The event occurred almost two weeks after the collar had been placed on the dog. There was no indication of ingestion of the product and the attending veterinarian reported the dog lived in a rural area and may have been exposed to something else.
