Abrasion Reaction Insights

By species: Cat (73 reports), Dog (70 reports), Human (11 reports). By breed: Domestic Shorthair (45), Unknown (11), Retriever - Labrador (9).

Read these counts as reporting volume, not risk: per our methodology, co-reporting reflects temporal association captured in voluntary submissions, not proof that a drug caused this reaction. A widely-prescribed drug will rack up more raw co-reports at an identical true rate than a rarely-used one, so compare within similar-exposure products.
