What the FDA AER plate says about Bronchitis

Signature read: 49 death-coded reports is a heavy tail count for Bronchitis in the CVM extract. Report volume sits in the middle third of the reaction corpus. 49 of 241 reports were death-coded (20.3% of named reports, not a population mortality rate). Nearest volume peer: Acidosis (±1 reports). Lead species Dog (209). Lead co-reported drug Milbemycin Oxime + Spinosad (44).

Read these counts as reporting volume, not risk: per our methodology, Lead co-reported drug Milbemycin Oxime + Spinosad appears in filings alongside this reaction; that is association, not causation. Browse the full reactions index or the about page for how PlainBreed frames FDA CVM extracts.
