So sorry for your loss. A friend's great Dane never on apoquel, suddenly ran all around the yard and just died. It happens and it's sad.

Wow, Patricia. First, my sincere condolences for your sudden loss of a healthy nine year old! It sounds like her cause of death was not conclusive, but that's got to be such a blow. Reminds me of the athletes falling dead for the past year or two.
Thanks for bringing the elder human contraindications to light. I was unaware of this. I agree: if there are human problems referable to this drug's use in the elderly, that should definitely inform updated labeling for the veterinary product as well.
