1-27897501-The reporter, a pet owner, indicates her animal was exposed to an insecticidal product containing the active ingredients etofenprox and methoprene. The pet owner stated she applied the product to her four year twenty pound domestic shorthair cat one hour prior to her initial report. The pet owner had noted the animal was able to turn around and lick or groom the product from its back (the application site). The animal was observed to salivate excessively since that time. The pet owner was advised the product is meant to be topical and not taken internally. She was advised to wash the animal with a non insecticidal shampoo to remove any portion that may be reaches and consumed by the animal. On follow up one day later the pet owner indicated the animal resolved within thirty minutes of her initial contact.
