One thing I’ve learned about medication for pets is that a lot of it is dangerous/deadly. If dog toothpaste has something that gives them terrible cancer in 20 years but they die of old age after 12, that’s totally fine. But if a 20 year old dies at 40 because of an additive that could easily be avoided that’s a big deal. Additives in products humans use should be safe for at least 80 years of regular exposure.
