Cats can be killed by many drugs even if they are intended for human use, seek veterinary guidance.

No NO NO!!!! GOD NO as far as I know animals should basicaly never take any medication that is intended for human consumption As good as it may make us feel ( lol) Cats and all animals bodies are very different from ours and I just simply wouldn't risk it. Its like the chocolate things its amazing to us and deadly to them! So I am not a vet but in my experience I would never ever give any aimal any medication without first speaking to a qualified vet its simply not worth taking the risk of hurting the kitty.

You can give your dog a small dose of anything you want but I don't recommend it without a veterinarian's approval. Hydrocodone is an opiate based pain medicine that can be harmful and even fatal for canines. The possible side effects in humans (constipation, dizziness, nausea, paralysis, and seizures) alone are dangerous enough - giving it to your dog could prove fatal. Stick to aspirin (small doses) and check with your vet.

I agree, also if you use aspirin, make sure it has a stomach coating added.

I would strongly recommend not - animal pharmaceuticals, while maintained at high levels of sterility and contamination control, are not under the same scrutiny as human pharmaceuticals. There are also more adjuvants and carrier compounds that can be used for animals but not humans.

Possibly more importantly, hydrocodone is a controlled substance - it can only be used by the patient it was prescribed for at the doseages prescribed. To get hydrocodone for your dog and then use it yourself would be illegal drug diversion and a felony.

No: Norco contains acetaminophen, which is toxic to dogs. Just a few tablets would be sufficient to cause irreversible liver damage or problems with red blood cells

The dose makes the poison; too much will kill a dog, or any other animal. Of course, too much will kill a person, too.

ZERO!!
