Death-Coded Outcome Share

Crossbred Porcine/Pig death-coded reports 100.0%
Database median

4400.0% of 368 reports involved a death outcome. Read alongside breed popularity, veterinary access, and owner awareness — these shape how many events ever reach the FDA. The 12% comparison line is the rough cross-breed median in the FDA CVM database; values above suggest higher reporting bias toward severe outcomes, not necessarily higher true mortality.

Crossbred Porcine/Pig Pet Health Insights

Across the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine adverse event database, Crossbred Porcine/Pig accounts for 368 submitted reports and currently ranks #154 by report volume within the pig population. Of those reports, 162 involved a death outcome — a 4400.0% case-fatality figure calculated directly from the underlying FDA records rather than from external mortality studies. The mean age at time of reporting is 0.3 years, with an average recorded body weight of 51.0 kg (112.5 lbs). These figures reflect the voluntary reporting pool only and should be read alongside breed popularity, veterinary access, and owner awareness — all of which shape how many events ever reach the FDA.

The most frequently reported clinical signs for Crossbred Porcine/Pig are Death (114 reports), Anaphylaxis (74 reports), Lameness (43 reports), together capturing a substantial share of the top-reaction traffic seen in this breed's record. On the product side, Gonadotropin Releasing Factor (Gnrf) - Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate appears in 117 reports and is the single most-referenced drug, followed by Narasin (37) and Tulathromycin (36). Counts like these surface which therapeutic classes dominate the reporting stream — useful context when comparing reactions across breeds of the same pig species.

Outcome coding on the 453 reports with a recorded status is dominated by Died (32.0% of coded outcomes). Annual submission volume ranges from 2,010 to 2,025 reports across the 16 years on file, indicating the reporting trend is shaped as much by awareness cycles as by underlying clinical events. Because FDA adverse event reports describe correlation rather than causation, these numbers are most useful as a signal of where to ask further questions with a veterinarian — not as a standalone risk score for any individual pig.

Understanding Crossbred Porcine/Pig Adverse Event Data

Crossbred Porcine/Pig has 368 adverse event reports on file. Lower report volumes may reflect a less common breed, lower reporting rates, or genuinely fewer adverse events.

The 4400.0% death rate is above average, though this statistic should be interpreted cautiously. Death reports may be overrepresented because serious outcomes are more likely to be reported than mild reactions.

The most frequently referenced drug in adverse reports is Gonadotropin Releasing Factor (Gnrf) - Diphtheria Toxoid Conjugate, appearing in 117 reports. This may indicate widespread use of the medication rather than a specific safety concern for Crossbred Porcine/Pig.
