Vitamin D is an essential nutrient for dogs; however, ingestion of elevated levels can lead to health issues depending on the level of vitamin D and the length of exposure. Vitamin D toxicity may include vomiting, loss of appetite, increased thirst, increased urination, and excessive drooling to renal (kidney) dysfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Purina is taking this action after receiving two contacts about two separate confirmed cases of a dog exhibiting signs of vitamin D toxicity after consuming the diet, to date. Once taken off the diet, each of these dogs recovered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The affected dry dog food was distributed throughout the United States by prescription only through veterinary clinics, Purina Vet Direct, Purina for Professionals, and other select retailers with the ability to validate a prescription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bags of PPVD EL with the UPC Code and Production Code below should be immediately discarded.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Product<\/th><th>UPC Code<\/th><th>Production Code<br>(*First 8 characters equal to)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets EL Elemental (PPVD EL)<br>8 lb and 20 lb bags<\/td><td>38100 19190 \u2013 8 lb<br>38100 19192 \u2013 20 lb<\/td><td>2249 1082<br>2250 1082<br>2276 1082<br>2277 1082<br>2290 1082<br>2360 1082<br>2361 1082<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Pet owners who purchased bags of the product listed above are asked to immediately stop feeding and throw it away in a container where no other animals, including wildlife, can get to it.
