On 23-May-2019 the dog was seen by both the attending veterinarian and an emergency veterinarian and was diagnosed with acute pancreatitis.

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

Death

19. Provide supplemental information here

O - Unclassifiable/unassessable Reported emesis is an unspecific sign and is sometimes reported following product use. Close association in time. However, in this case, sign may rather be associated with later diagnosed acute pancreatitis. Pancreatitis and death are not expected in dog after product application, as inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile. Other causes should be considered. Time to onset is rather long. Considering overall aspects, a product relation remains unassessable.
