Don’t know why they say it’s Australian. Ivermectin is a Japanese drug.

I don’t blame the FDA for the warning. I’ve recently had to deal with someone medicating a dog (different drug) without bothering to look up how to do it. (What the mcg/Kg are for the particular species and for the particular parasite. ) The dog overdosed but will be OK.

Maybe it’s manufactured locally? That caught my eye as well, wondered about that, didn’t know about the Japanese aspect.

Yup. If I remember correctly, dogs are about 4x more sensitive to caffeine than humans are. AND you have to include weight - that dog might weigh 4x less than you do. So one cup of coffee for you, is the dog's equivalent of 16 cups of coffee!
