19. Provide supplemental information here

Hypersalivation may occur after oral exposure of the product. However no oral exposure is reported. In this case sign may be associated with death of the animal. Death is not expected after product application, as inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile. Product has wide margin of safety Oral LD50 in rat 642 mg/kg BW. 24-fold overdosage tolerated by cats without showing any side effect. Cat involved in this case was geriatric, which may have contributed to death of the animal. Time to onset is short though. Finally, even though for especially for death no plausible connection can be made to the product, without necropsy a relation is deemed to be unassessable.
