Its not recommended to give your dog any human medication especially an NSAID like diclofenac. Severe liver and kidney damage can result from incorrect use of the diclofenac. This medication is best used under vet supervision.

Ibuprofen For A Cat:
  • Technically, NO, you can't give anything to a cat. Ibuprofen is deadly to cats and "Ibuprofen is reported to have potential for serious side effects in dogs and cats and is not recommended for use in these species." (Applied Pharmacology for the Veterinary Technician)
  • NEVER give your pet any medication without first consulting your vet. When I find out on occasion what medication I am to give my pets then I may go to my local pharmacy (cheaper) and get the medication by weight of my dog. Until the vet tells me what my pet needs, I never self medicate them.
  • No, I would check with the vet first! It may be fine for us to take medications to relieve pain but not for cats. The safest thing to do to make a cat in pain feel better is to get medication from the vet.
  • You should NEVER give a cat any kind of NSAID (ibuprofen, asprin, tylenol). Very small doses of these can be fatal to a cat. A cat's body does not have the capability to metabolize these well.
  • A cat cannot tolerate many things that are given to dogs. If your cat is in pain, take it to the Vet.

No. You should never give a cat human medication as this could easily overdose and kill the cat. Even giving a cat a tiny amount of painkiller could seriously harm the cat.

If you believe your cat to be in pain, it is best to take it to the vet so it can get the correct treatment.

Can you drink beer with Ibuprofen?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It depends on the medication, if there is a warning on the medication that you should not drink alchohol while taking that medication, then the answer is a big fat no.

If there is no such warning, it should be okay, though you should always ask a health profesional about potential drug interactions before taking medication.

How many ibuprofen do you take to get really sick?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Ibuprofen will not make you high----all it does is give you stomach cramps, nausea, make you throw up, and possibly ruin your kidneys. I know someone who tried to kill herself by swallowing three bottles----it didn't get her high, though it made her very sick. She had to go the hospital to get her stomach pumped.

Which type of Advil dissolves the fastest?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

they are all around the same, any difference would be very minor and not likely to be significant

if you are just trying to get it to take effect as fast as possible, you can crush or chew the tablet, but I wouldn't expect it to taste to good, and you would want to make sure to rinse out your mouth pretty good because the drug is fairly acidic

Can you take ibuprofen again after you threw it up?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Eating ibuprofen will not stop the vomiting. In fact taking the medication while vomiting will only defeat the purpose as you need to keep the pill down to digest it. Never take anything by mouth if you are throwing up. This can become very dangerous and cause you to choke, which can cause death.

Whenever you're having seizure, getting chemotherapy, before having a surgery, and experience muscle spasms with severe pain.

Can you take Prozac with ibuprofen?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer to Effexor XR questionI take the two together all the time. If you have a predisposition to gastrointestinal bleeding, mixing them is a bad idea, but so is using Advil at all. It's said there's an increased risk for it, overall, when they're mixed, but the data is sketchy, and it's probably just the fact that both have a risk, not that it's an interaction.
