19. Provide supplemental information here

O - Unclassifiable/unassessable Death is not expected after product application, as inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile. Oral exposure to the product is not expected to cause serious conditions leading to death. The product was administered to puppies at up to 5 times the recommended dose, every 2 weeks for 6 treatments and there were no serious safety concerns. No signs of allergy/anaphylactic reaction. Considering the product profile, product involvement is deemed rather unlikely, however due to limited information (necropsy was not performed) and short time to onset, case was considered to be unassessable.
