Can dogs take cold medicine?
Dogs can take cold medicines specially designed for pets, but they cannot take cold medicines for humans. Because cold granules used by humans may cause poisoning symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, and conjunctival cyanosis in dogs. If it is an emergency and pet cold medicine cannot be purchased, it is recommended that the owner first feeds a quarter of children's isatis root to the dog. Then seek medical treatment promptly. In addition, if the dog shows signs of fever, you can temporarily use physical cooling methods to cool the dog, such as wiping the dog's flesh pads and limb sockets with alcohol.
Rescue measures for dogs poisoned by cold medicine:
Once the owner discovers that the dog is poisoned by cold medicine, he should wait 1-2 hours after ingesting the medicine. Induce vomiting as soon as possible. Then use activated charcoal powder dissolved in water and give it to the dog to alleviate the degree of poisoning. If first aid measures are ineffective, the pet should be sent to a pet hospital for treatment immediately.
