19. Provide supplemental information here
Off label use (Unauthorized species). Cat developed typical neurological sign of intoxication after contact with permethrin. However, even though permethrin is toxic for cats and may have a fatal outcome, generally cats have a good chance to recover if adequate treatment is applied in time. However, in this case the cat died before therapy was implemented. Finally, considering short time to onset, a product connection is deemed to be probable.
