(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On an unknown date in Aug-2016, 2 days post application, the dog died. No 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 phone call was to discuss the use of the product on another pet and not to report the death of the patient. No more information is expected. 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. Product has wide margin of safety. No signs of anaphylaxis reported which would have occurred in close proximity to the collar application. Previous application is well tolerated by animal. Moreover, the reason for the initial phone call was to discuss the use of the product on another pet and not to report the death of the patient. Involved animal is geriatric. Time to onset is short though. Even though some information is not available (health status and necropsy report), sufficient information exists to rule out product involvement. Hence, considering known product safety profile a product relation is unlikely.
