Yes, a dog can overdose on Benadryl, and it doesn't take as much as you might think.

You can give 0.5-1mg of benadryl per pound
A person taking six to eight 25 milligram Benadryl tablets will overdose.
No, this would be a very bad idea. First, dogs need a much different dose of Benadryl than humans do, and skin absorption of Benadryl is very different between humans and dogs. You could cause a bad overdose with this without meaning to. Second, Benadryl cream is formulated to be placed on the skin ONLY - dogs tend to lick anyplace that is irritating them and are likely to lick this stuff off and eat it, potentially causing a bad medical reaction to the ingredients in the cream. Third, dogs really don't need a topical Benadryl - veterinarians use it to deal with bee stings and mast cell tumors, but those are both pretty rare and not something you would be handling on your own.
i took 4 25mg benadryl pills, do i need to go to the hospital
This will depend upon the size of the dog and the exact formulation of Benadryl you are asking about.
No, this drug is for allergies.
What does your dog's Vet say?
can you give a 10 year old Benadryl and an inhaler
No, benadryl can't be toxic to cats OR dogs, but aspirin is toxic to cats or dogs hope this helped :)
Yes !! do not use that much. What are you giving it to your dog for? Remember there are 2 kinds of Benadryl an antihistimine and a decongestant. Assuming you are using the anithistamine, I'd check with your vet.
This is not an official or anything, but I have been taking dyphenhydramine for sleep (which is the active ingredient in Benedryl), and I have been taking these for so long my body does not react to the "Normal" dosage, and I will take anywhere from 15-25 at a time. It will dry your sinuses out and it can make you hallucinate. If you do not eat it will also cause vomiting.
