(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On an unspecified date post collar application, in 2013, the dog died. No necropsy was performed. The owner initially contacted Bayer Animal Health to seek advise on tick control and not to report the death of this pet. No more information is expected. Case is closed.
Death
N - Unlikely. Death is not expected following product application, as it is inconsistent with products pharmaco-toxicological profile. Oral exposure to the collar is not expected to cause death either. An overdose of 5 collars around the neck was investigated in adult cats and dogs for an 8 months period and in 10 week old kittens and 7 week old puppies for a 6 months period without causing serious signs. Very low level of information, (age, weight of dog, medical history, concurrent medical conditions, product details, unknown time to onset and necropsy not available) as the owner initially contacted Bayer Animal Health to seek advise on tick control and not to report the death of this pet. Thus, other etiologies are more probable. Considering the provided data, sufficient information exists to confirm that the product did not cause the event and product involvement was considered to be unlikely.
