The intent of the call was to inquire about product use in general and not to report this even

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

Death

19. Provide supplemental information here

O - Unclassifiable/unassessable The information regarding the death of the dog was casually provided during an inquiry. The level of information is low. Nevertheless reported cardiac disorder, investigated blood in the urine and death are inconsistent with pharmaco-toxicological product profile and experience. 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. However, in this case cardiac disorder may be the cause of the death in this geriatric dog. Considering unknown time to onset, a product relation is unassessable.
