Ending Redirect
editElanco was spun off from Eli Lilly like a while ago...perhaps redirecting isn’t the best option anymore. CastAStone//(talk) 03:40, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
Edit Request – History Section
editThis edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered. |
NOTE: I’m proposing the following edits for FleishmanHillard on behalf of Elanco. I’m a paid editor and aware of the COI guidelines. Please let me know of any questions or comments as you review. Thanks. Jon Gray (talk) 19:55, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
History Section
- First part of the first sentence of the final paragraph (“Elanco’s flea and tick collar, branded Seresto…”): Attribution of the company that developed Seresto (Bayer Animal Health) and then manufactured the product (Elanco) is incorrect. Please update this portion of sentence to read as follows for accuracy:
Elanco's flea and tick collar, branded "Seresto," which was developed by Bayer Animal Health and acquired by Elanco in 2020[1]…
- Final paragraph of the section: There is more recent news about the U.S. government’s investigation of Seresto. Request adding the following as an addendum to the final paragraph of the History section for resolution of this matter:
On July 13, 2023, following a multi-year review, the EPA announced that they were unable to determine whether Seresto was the cause for reported animal deaths and that the collars met registration standards necessary to remain on the market for five years.[2][3][4] Elanco and the EPA also agreed to develop a program designed to enhance data collection for adverse event reports and continued annual enhanced reporting of Seresto adverse event data.[5]
- The sentence that reads “The collars have been banned in Canada.” is incorrect. No official ban was ever instituted in the country, as the product is still available from multiple Canada-based retailers. [6][7][8] However, it is true that the product was not registered for sale in Canada.[9] Given the facts, request updating that sentence to read as follows, for accuracy:
The collars have not been registered for sale in Canada.[10] Jon Gray (talk) 19:55, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

The popular Seresto flea and tick collar will remain on the market, but with new mitigation measures, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced on Thursday. The EPA announced the measures after a multi-year analysis of the collars' safety. The agency limited the approval of the collar to five years and required Elanco — the manufacturer of Seresto — to conduct enhanced reporting for adverse events, do additional outreach to the veterinary community and put new warnings on the product's label, among other changes.
