• The collar begins to be effective one week after it is placed on the dog.
• Cases of hypersensitivity reactions have been reported in people who have been in contact with or around the collar, mainly of a local nature (such as erythema, inflammation, urticaria, pruritus, contact dermatitis and/or localized rash) and on occasion of systemic nature (such as tachycardia, laryngeal edema, erythematous rash, respiratory distress and/or tingling sensation in the throat, mouth and/or face).
