No Never give Advil to a dog or cat. It is dangerous. You need to check with your Veterinarian as to why you wish to give Advil to your pet that is already taking pheno. Buffered aspirin is the only safe thing to give to your pet but again you need to check with your Vet before giving any aspirin.
Can you give a dog a asirin if they are on phenobarbital
How much you give of either buffered adult aspirin or baby aspirins depends on the weight of your dog: A dog that weighs 8 lbs, would get 1/2 baby aspirin or less. A dog weighing 16 lbs, would get 1 baby aspirin. A dog weighing 32 lbs, would get 1/2 buffered adult aspirin or 2 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 48 lbs, would get 3/4 buffered adult aspirin or 3 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 64 lbs, would get 1 buffered adult aspirin or 4 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 80 lbs, would get 1 1/4 buffered adult aspirin or 5 baby aspirins. A dog weighing 96 lbs, would get 1 1/2 buffered adult aspirin or 6 baby aspirins. Aspirin can cause gastrointestinal upsets and ulcers in dogs, just as in humans. You should pay attention to your dog's eating habits when you have been giving it aspirin to watch for signs of an upset stomach (such as not wanting to eat, or vomiting) and stop giving the aspirin. To minimize stomach problems, always give food with the aspirin.
You should never give your dog any sort of medication without checking with your Veterinarian. Especially something like this. Take your dog in to be seen by the Vet who is treating your dog with the phenobarbital.
Ask a vet! LOL
It is not a good idea to give a dog a baby aspirin if he has an enlarged heart unless you have spoken with your dogs veterinarian. Your veterinarian will be able to give the correct dosage amount for your dog.
Yes, for short term, dogs can be given aspirin as a pain medication. However, it should be used under the advise of the veterinarian. The veterinarian can tell if the baby aspirin contains the correct amount needed for the dog.
In my experience with my dog, the phenobarb helped immediately. I think it depends mostly on the size of dog and dosage.
Baby aspiring can be given to dogs every 8 to 12 hours. Do not give your dog baby aspirin without consulting your veterinarian.
Ask the vet.
If you need to give your dog any type home remedy pain med, it's better to give them, a LOW DOSE ASPIRIN such as BABY ASPIRIN. NOT MOTRIN.
Shut your mouth
Yes, but watch for signs of stomach upset, such as if the dog stops eating, or vomits, or if the dog vomits blood, especially. If the dog vomits blood you should take the dog to a veterinarian. See the Related Link below. And NEVER give Tylenol (acetaminophen) to a dog.
Take the baby first, then come back for the dog, but take the baby back to where the pills are, drop the baby off pick up the pills and take them to the dog, after, the baby is the only one that's left to take :L
