N - Unlikely Death is not expected after product application, as inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile. Product has wide margin of safety. The oral LD50 in rat is 642 mg/kg BW. 20-fold overdosage tolerated by dogs without showing any side effect. In case of suspected product involvement, adverse event would have been reported in close proximity of product application and not after long time (2 year). No signs of anaphylactic reaction reported. Other etiologies are more probable in this geriatric dog. Time to onset is exceptionally long. Product involvement is deemed to be unlikely.
