Dog may have gotten into my medicine

Oh no, it sounds like your curious pup might have gotten into something they shouldn’t have. Dogs are naturally inquisitive, and unfortunately, human medications can be quite harmful to them. The specific risks depend on the type of medication and the amount ingested. Common symptoms of medication poisoning in dogs include vomiting, diarrhea, lethargy, tremors, or even seizures.



Right now, the best thing you can do is keep a close eye on your dog. If you notice any unusual behavior or symptoms, such as drooling, restlessness, or changes in appetite or coordination, this could indicate a more serious issue. It’s also critically important to identify exactly what and how much your dog might have ingested. You can try contacting your local veterinarian or a pet poison hotline to get immediate advice.



In terms of keeping your dog comfortable at home, ensure they have plenty of water and a quiet space to rest. Avoid giving them any additional food or medicine unless directed by a professional. If symptoms escalate or if you're unsure about the next steps, it’s best to consult with a veterinarian promptly.



I strongly recommend booking a video consultation with a vet through Dial A Vet. It’s a great way to get personalized guidance and peace of mind for you and better care for your furry friend.
