How much Xanax can you give a 36 pound dog to heavily sedate them for grooming?

You would NEVER give a dog Xanax for sedation. Human medications do not mix well with dogs or any animals & can cause death. Check with your Veterinarian about what sort of sedation to give your dog that would be safe.


What is the dosage of Xanax you can give your dog?

************( posted by someone else)Xanax is actually a prescribed medicine for dogs.As long as you have a prescription from your vet it is safe to give to your dog. If you are unsure of the dose or the current dose is not working, you should contact your vet to discuss your options.My dog is on xanax, she is 13lbs and can take up to .5mg a day.Just so everyone knows, the xanax dogs take is the exact same kind that humans take, my dog's prescription was filled at a Kroger pharmacy.It is absolutely not safe to dose your dog with your xanax though. Vets know your dogs condition and any possible reasons your dog could be harmed by ANY medicine. ALWAYS get medicine from a veterinarian for your animals, that is the only way you can know the correct dose to administer.After all we would not give our children prescription medication without discussing it with a doctor, same goes for your pets!!!!

Can you give a small dog half of an Ambien so you can cut his nails he turns into physco dog when you touch his nails?

Absolutely not. Ambien can kill a dog, and a small dog can be killed more quickly by it. Never give an animal a medicine meant for a human unless you have a prescription from a veterinarian specifically for that animal. You can give a dog BABY Benadryl, the liquid kind might work best. But remember that the dose must be MUCH lower for a dog than for a human, even an infant if the dog is a small dog. It is best to ask a veterinarian what exact dose to give the dog.


Can you give Ambien to a dog?

Never give an animal a medication that is made for a human. Dogs have different systems from humans, and human medications may kill them or make them sick. Ask a veterinarian what to give your dog.

Will ambien and xanax kill someone?

Not directly (unless the dose is very high) but ambien can cause people to fall asleep and sleepwalk, and xanax can lower inhibitions. So it's possible that somebody taking both drugs could do something foolish like walking off a cliff or driving.

No ambien is one of the brand names for Zolpidem, a hypnotic used for insomnia whereas fluoxetine is a selective serotonin uptake inhibitor (SSRI) used for depression, bulimia and OCD.
