(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On September 4, 2010, the owner believes the product was not completely dry by the time she let the dog back into the treated areas. The owner had left the house and was gone for three hours and when she returned she had found that the dog was symptomatic. The owner then contacted the Animal Product Safety Service (APSS). The APSS veterinarian stated use of premise sprays as per label directions is not expected to cause significant clinical signs. The APSS veterinarian also stated the concentration of active ingredients is typically quite low, so even ingestion of the agent via licking treated surfaces does not pose a significant threat of toxicity. The APSS veterinarian further stated that a taste reaction may occur and if enough is ingested, we may see mild, typically self-limiting GI signs and more severe signs are not expected. The APSS veterinarian recommended monitoring the pet for gastrointestinal signs, taking the dog to the veterinarian, and calling back with questions.
Minor
Signs were expected to be mild and self-limiting.
