(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On an unknown date post application, in 2015, the cat died. It is unknown if a necropsy was performed. Due to the sensitive nature of the communication, specific relevant event details were not obtained, nor will such be sought. The reason for the initial call was to discuss the use of K9 Advantix II another pet and not to report the death of the patient. No further information is expected. This case is closed.
Death
Death is not expected following appropriate topical product application as inconsistent with products pharmacological profile. Oral exposure to the collar is not expected to cause serious signs 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. In case of suspected product involvement, adverse event would have been reported in close proximity and not long time after. Further, the reason for the initial call was to discuss the use of K9 Advantix II another pet and not to report the death of the patient. Animal involved in this case was geriatric. Even though some information is not available (animal details, health status, medical history and necropsy report) sufficient information exists to ruled out product relation completely. Finally, a product relation is considered as unlikely.
