Your dog has ingested a significant amount of Medihoney from your first aid kit. While Medihoney is generally safe for treating wounds, ingesting a large quantity may lead to digestive upset in dogs.
- Medihoney is primarily used for topical wound care.
- Large quantities might disturb your dog's stomach.
- Monitoring for symptoms like vomiting or diarrhea is essential.
Medihoney contains honey, which is safe for dogs in small amounts as part of certain treatments, but a tube's volume might upset the digestive system, leading to possible upset stomach or diarrhea. It's always best to err on the side of caution and contact your veterinarian for guidance, especially if your dog shows any signs of discomfort or unusual behavior.
Book a consultation with a licensed vet at Dial A Vet for just $49 AUD if you're unsure or symptoms are getting worse.
