(p.ex. description des symptômes tels que la fréquence et la gravité
On September 10, 2013 the owner noticed that the cat was lethargic and inappetent. On September 11, 2013 the owner noticed that the cat's feces were an abnormal color and the cat had icterus, with his gums and the skin around his ears and face appearing yellow. The owner removed the flea and tick collar a short time later, and the owner noticed that the cat was no longer lethargic or inappetent. Later that evening the owner contacted the Animal Product Safety Service (APSS) to obtain help. The APSS veterinarian stated that Propoxur has a good margin of safety and that systemic effects leading to icterus would not be expected. The APSS assistant recommended that the owner take the cat to the veterinarian, have the veterinarian call for information, and call back with questions.
Majeure
The APSS veterinarian stated that the substance was not considered to be related to causing the clinical situation. On September 12, 2013 the owner's regular veterinarian contacted the APSS to update the case. The APSS veterinarian recommended that the owner's regular veterinarian perform a diagnostic evaluation and provide symptomatic care. On September 13, 2013 the owner called the APSS to update the case. The owner stated that the cat tested positive for the feline leukemia virus (FeLV) on September 12, 2013. The cat was given Baytril that evening and again 12 hours later on the morning of September 13, 2013. The owner also stated that the cat was lethargic, vomiting, urinating inappropriately, and unresponsive on the evening of September 13, 2013. The APSS veterinarian stated that only mild gastrointestinal (GI) upset would be expected with the exposure to the Baytril. The APSS veterinarian recommended that the owner take the cat to a veterinarian right away. The APSS veterinarian stated that the Baytril was considered to have a doubtful likelihood of causing the clinical situation and that the feline leukemia virus was considered to have a high likelihood of causing the clinical situation. Later on the evening of September 13, 2013 the owner's emergency veterinarian contacted the APSS to update the case. The emergency veterinarian stated that the cat was dehydrated, emaciated, and anemic, with a hematocrit recorded as 18.0 percent by volume (% v/v). The APSS veterinarian recommended that the emergency veterinarian do a differential blood smear, potentially send for a hemobartonella titer, continue providing symptomatic care, and call back with questions.
