(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
1-28164267- The reporter, a pet owner, indicates her animal was exposed to an insecticidal product containing the active ingredient methoprene. The pet owner indicated she had applied the product to her seven year male cat four days prior to her initial contact with the registrant. The pet owner reports within twelve hours of application the glassy eyed, was unable to eat or stand and urinated on himself. The pet was bathed and taken to the veterinarian. The pet owner indicated veterinarian was considering a blood transfusion when the pet died three days after application. The pet owner was advised the signs seen and outcome would be unexpected following use of this product as labeled. The fact that the veterinarian was considering a blood transfusion is indicative they considered another disease process likely as even in circumstances of known toxicity/overdosage with this product a transfusion would not be a logical course of treatment.
