(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
1-45488730 - The reporter, a pet owner, indicated her dog was exposed to an insecticidal spot-on product containing the active ingredient D-phenothrin. Twenty-two days before the day of initial contact with the registrant, the reporter applied a single dose of the product to her 10-pound, 2-year-old, male, Shih Tzu dog. The dog had a single episode of vomiting at an unknown date after this application. Four days before the day of initial contact with the registrant the reporter applied another dose of the product to the dog. Within two to three days, the dog developed vomiting, anorexia, lethargy, muscle twitching in his rear legs, and felt warm to the touch with red skin. The caller was informed that the dosing interval of the product should be every thirty days, but she had reapplied it after only eighteen days leading to a possible overdose. The reporter was instructed to bathe the pet and seek veterinary care for him. On follow-up call two days later, the reporter indicated she had not sought veterinary care for the dog due to financial concerns. The dogs skin was still pink and he was not eating well, but the reporter believed he was a more normal skin temperature. The reporter was again advised to seek veterinary care for the dog. No additional information is available.
