Adverse effects201
In a well-controlled U.S. field study, 225 dogs were administered two doses of BRAVECTO QUANTUM at a 1-year interval and 96 dogs were administered an oral active control every 12 weeks for a total of 6 doses. Over the 455-day study period, all observations of potential adverse reactions were recorded. One dog treated in the BRAVECTO QUANTUM group had a hypersensitivity reaction which included hives, facial edema, vomiting, and heavy breathing within the first 12 hours following the initial treatment. The dog was treated with oral antihistamines and recovered within 24 hours of treatment. No additional hypersensitivity reactions were observed in subsequent dosing 12 months later when premedicated with diphenhydramine. In well-controlled foreign laboratory effectiveness studies, after administration of BRAVECTO QUANTUM, two dogs exhibited slight mucosal hyperemia the day following administration that resolved the following day, one dog exhibited transient erythema 10 minutes post-injection that resolved within 1 hour, and one dog had a nonpainful swollen upper eyelid observed 24 hours post treatment. In a large European field study, pain on injection of BRAVECTO QUANTUM was reported in 5 dogs. Percentage of Dogs with Adverse Reactions in the Field Study Adverse Reaction (AR) BRAVECTO QUANTUM(n = 225 dogs) Active Control(n = 96 dogs) Lethargy 4.9% 3.1% Decreased appetite 4.4% 4.2% Vomiting 4.0% 0% Diarrhea 2.7% 3.1% Alanine aminotransferase (ALT); Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) Liver enzymes (serum ALT or ALP) greater than twice the upper reference range 2.7% 2.1% Pruritus 1.8% 2.1% Mild injection site reactions, described as a lump, bump or knot, occurred in three BRAVECTO QUANTUM treated dogs and were all observed within 3 days of the injection. All injection site reactions were self-limiting and resolved following 1, 4, and 27 days after the initial observation. Injection site lumps or swelling 1.3% 0% Two dogs treated with BRAVECTO QUANTUM experienced seizures during the study. One dog with a history of at least one seizure within three months prior to the start of the study, reported 6 seizures in 9 months starting 23 days after the initial dose. Although anticonvulsant medications were not started, no additional seizures were observed during the study following the second dose administered 12 months after the initial dose. A second dog reported 8 seizures starting 57 days after the initial dose. The dog was removed from the study on Day 84 and managed with anticonvulsant medications. Seizures 0.9% 0%
