(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms

On an unknown date post application, in approximately 2014, the cat 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 call to Bayer Animal Health was to discuss the use of Advantage II in her current cat and not to report the death of this cat. No further information is expected. This case is closed.

18. Severity classification (if there is more than 1 possible classification

Death

19. Provide supplemental information here

N-unlikely: The information regarding the death of the cat was casually provided during an inquiry, the reason for the initial call was to discuss the use of product in current cat. Nevertheless, death is not expected after product application, as inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile. Other etiologies are more probable. Moreover, in case of suspected product involvement, adverse event would have been reported in close proximity and not long time after (approximately 3 years). No signs of allergy/anaphylactic reaction reported. Product has wide margin of safety. Oral LD50 in rat is 642 mg/kg BW. 24-fold overdosage tolerated by cats without showing any side effect. Finally, even though very less information (unknown time to onset) provided, considering known safety profile of product and unexpected fatal outcome, a product involvement considered to be unlikely.
