(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
1-34406861 - The reporter, a pet owner, indicated that his two cats were exposed to a spot-on insecticide containing the active ingredient methoprene. The reporter indicated that he applied the product to his male, 5-month-old cat (Subform III #1) two days prior to initial contact with the registrant and and shortly after application the cat began drooling for a period of 5-6 minutes. The reporters other cat never developed any symptoms from the exposure but the reporter wiped the product off of both of his cats and then immediately brought the cats to the emergency veterinarian where they were given a dose of activated charcoal and an atropine injection. While at the emergency veterinary clinic the male, 5-month-old cat did drool a little more but no other symptoms were seen. The reporter was advised that the product has little to no toxicity in mammals but if the animal grooms the application area the unpleasant taste may result in short-term drooling. No further information is available.
