This is from a Rottie List
This is a new product designed to be a more effective product than
other flea/tick treatments that was just released this year. It is
available thru a vet and not currently on-line. I got ProMeris this
week fo r my 7 dogs (6 Huskies & 1 Golden-Airedale) , and the results
were debilitating for nearly all of them-including me.
Since my incident this week, my vet has pulled it from distribution and
alerted the manufacturer, Fort Dodge .
Here are my results: Within less than 2 hours after applying, 4 of my
dogs had vomited from 2-4 times, 3 were disoriented and stumbling, 1
was dragging his back leg, 1 was salivating. I had very similar
symptoms like an allergic reaction-my lips were swollen, eyes very
red, mucous membranes such as eyes, nose, and mouth were stinging. I was
very disoriented- dizzy equilibrium and not able to drive. To make this
a short story-all 7 of my dogs were admitted to the hospital for
Veterinarian care, and 3 of them remained for care, IV fluids and
observation for 24 hours. I was in the emergency room. I'm home now
and so are the dogs. We're all feeling much better.
Vet bills were over $2,500 and Fort Dodge is paying for these.
Not only can the product cause this reaction, it has a highly noxious
odor that permeated the house and is just starting to dissipate after
3 days.
Your dogs/cats might not have the same reaction, but given my
experience-I
wanted to help you all become well-educated about the product.
