1-23462721- The reporter calls to indicate exposure of her animal to an insecticide containing the active ingredient phenothrin. The caller reports she applied the product, a topical flea and tick drop, to her nine month five pound female Chihuahua dog two days prior to the initial contact with the registrant. The pet owner stated she applied the product in the morning and when she returned from work later in the day she found the animal lethargic and lacking an appetite. She states she contacted a veterinarian by phone but no constructive treatment advice was offered and the animal was not brought in for an appointment. The animal was found dead in the morning. The caller was advised the signs seen and outcome would not be expected following use of the product according to label instructions. The caller was advised of registrant supported necropsy to help determine the animal¿s cause of death. The caller declined necropsy. No further information is available.
