Fort Dodge Animal Health is recalling approximately 11,675 bottles of Kopertox Water-Resistant Protection (37.5% copper naphthenate). This over-the-counter animal treatment is being recalled because some bottles may be 'superpotent,' meaning they contain a higher concentration of the active ingredient than specified. This product was sold in 16-ounce bottles at wholesale and retail accounts across the United States and in Mexico.
Superpotent medications can cause unexpected adverse reactions or toxicity in treated animals due to the higher-than-intended concentration of copper naphthenate. Using a product with incorrect strength levels may lead to skin irritation or other health complications for the animal being treated.
