Review Details

I will never know for certain, but my dog had 3 grand mal seizures over the course of 2 weeks. She had extensive tests done, and nothing seemed to be off, until I mentioned to my vet that my girl was on this BioSpot. Apparently it is common, but some dogs may have seizures as a side effect of this drug. So while I can't say that this drug definitely caused the seizures,spend the extra $10 or so dollars and buy Frontline and be safe than sorry!!!

Thanks so much for this your review on this product. It is extremely valuable. Some over the counter drugs and even vitamins are harmful to some animals or some people. Great review.
In past tests by the USDA labs the main chemical used in Biospot was found to cause seizures and other nuerological damage in some animals. It has been proven in research so I might just try to get the company to pay for your dogs treatment! The chemical is on the package, just look it up and find the research articles.
