On June 6th, the caller's daughter went to hospital and had tests including brain scans to determine reason for seizure. The Prosar specialist advised that with the low incidence of symptoms in pets, would not expect human symptoms due to active ingredient. Maybe coincidence that she had symptoms at same time that product was used. If MD has questions to call back. Exposure route is unclear.
