Original publication title: Suspected cases of bromocyclen poisoning.
Plain-English summary
This report looks at eight cases where pets were suspected of being poisoned by bromocyclen, a chemical found in some products. The researchers gathered information about each case and analyzed the results to understand what happened. They also discussed the findings and suggested that a product called ALUGAN should be taken off the market in the UK due to these poisoning incidents. The outcome indicates a need for caution regarding this chemical and its products.
