32 tracked reaction signals; 60 reported cases; 7 serious reports; 2 species groups. These are reporting and label-derived signals for interpretation with a veterinarian.
Adverse-event reports help form a watch list, but they do not prove the medication caused the reaction and they are not a risk ranking between medications.
Official labels, package inserts, and reviewed summaries carry more weight than isolated reports.
Case reports and openFDA terms are useful for pattern awareness, but they are incomplete, can include multiple exposures, and do not estimate an individual pet's probability of harm.
Thrombocytopenia (4 reports), Elevated symmetrical dimethylarginine (4 reports), Conjunctivitis (3 reports), Urolithiasis (2 reports), Unclassifiable adverse event (2 reports)
