(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On an unspecified date in approximately Jul-2018, the dog died. No necropsy was performed. Due to the sensitive nature of the communication, specific relevant details were not obtained, nor will they be sought. The intent of the call was to discuss product use on another pet and not to report the death of the dog. No further information is expected. This case is closed.
Death
N - Unlikely Death is not expected following appropriate topical product application as inconsistent with product's 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. No signs of anaphylaxis reported which would have occurred in close proximity to the collar application. Moreover, the intent of the call was to discuss product use on another pet and not to report the death of this geriatric dog. Even though some information is not available (e.g. time to onset and necropsy report), considering available information and intent call a product relation is unlikely.
