(eg. description of the frequency and severity of the symptoms
On 30-Jul-2018, the dog developed vomiting and diarrhea. On 31-Jul-2018 the owner removed the collar and bathed the dog with an unspecified shampoo. On 01-Aug-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. No further information is expected. This case is closed.
Death
O - Unclassifiable/unassessable Reported vomiting and diarrhoea are unspecific and may have numerous other causes (e.g. gastrointestinal infection, dietary incompatibility) however mild gastrointestinal signs may occur shortly after product application. Time to onset inconsistent. Later reported 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. Considering low level of information (e.g health status, medical history and necropsy report are unknown), a product relation is unassessable.
