(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On an unspecified date in approximately 2016, a male, Retriever Labrador (No Description) canine, of unknown age, weight, reproductive status, and condition, with no known concomitant medical conditions, had one Seresto Large Dog (Flumethrin-Imidacloprid) collar placed around the neck by the owner. On an unspecified date post application, in approximately 2016, the dog died. No necropsy was performed. No more information is expected. Case is closed.
Death
N - Unlikely 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. Moreover, in case of suspected product involvement, adverse event would have occured in close proximity to the collar application and not reported long time after (4 months). Though some information is not availabale (e.g. state of health, age, time to onset and necropsy result) considering the known safety profile of the product, a product relation is unlikely.
