Reduced faecal output: low death-coded share in the FDA AER plate
Signature read: 3 death-coded reports is a thin tail count for Reduced faecal output in the CVM extract. Report volume is lower-third scale: 47 named reports in the openFDA extract. Death-coded share is lower-third: 3 of 47 reports (6.4% of named reports). Nearest volume peer: Abnormal number of offspring (±0 reports). Lead species Dog (25). Lead co-reported drug Buprenorphine (9).
Read these counts as reporting volume, not risk: per our methodology, Lead co-reported drug Buprenorphine 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.
