healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2021/10/01/pet-ibuprofen-overdose.aspx Story at-a-glance A near-tragedy involving a dog home alone with a giant bottle of ibuprofen serves as a reminder that we can never be too careful about keeping medications and furry family members a safe distance apart The dog, named Abby, survived her ordeal thanks to a team of determined emergency vets, the Pet Poison Helpline, and a last-ditch treatment almost unheard of in veterinary medicine NSAIDs, acetaminophen, and antidepressants are among the most common medications involved in pet poisonings If you’re a pet parent, play it safe and take steps to store all medications and supplements out of your animal companion’s reach If you suspect your pet has ingested a human over-the-counter or prescription medication call your veterinarian, a local emergency animal hospital, or a pet poison hotline immediately My notes: If you see something like this, don't do the Wait & See Approach. Get them to a vet ASAP.
