NOTE: The caller contacted Bayer Animal Health to inquire about using the remainder of the product on their new pet and not to report this event. Death not expected after product application, as inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile. Oral LD50 in rat 642 mg/kg BW. 20-fold overdosage tolerated by dogs without showing any side effect. No signs of allergy/anaphylactic reaction reported. The caller contacted Bayer Animal Health to inquire about using the reminder of the product on their new pet and not to report this event. However in case of suspected product involvement, adverse event would have been reported in close proximity and not long time (7 years)after. Overall and even though no necropsy was performed, a product relation considered as unlikely.
