People who say dogs can take ibuprofen are wrong. DO NOT give your dog ibuprofen. I sure you as a 16 plus year experienced veterinarian, dogs or cats cannot metabolize Advil or Tylenol or any NSAID for humans. You can seriously hurt your pet if you give them any human meds. I assure you I have seen many cases of dogs sick from owners giving even just one Advil or one Tylenol. animals metabolize (process) medications differently then humans, their liver can get damaged immedieltly. Please see your veterinarian before you give your pet any human medication what so ever. Trying to save money by giving over the counter meds like this will only cost you more money because your pet will become sick. Dogs and cats can't tell you they are sick, and most owners are unaware of their pet being sick till their pet is extremely sick, costing the owner more money. Be smart, see your vet if you think your pet needs any kind of medications. Cats especially can't take anything.

What is the dosage of Ibuprofen for a 50 dog?
1st Answer: Ibuprofen is toxic to dogs and cats -- their livers cannot process it. The dosage is NONE. 2nd Incorrect Answer: Ibuprofen can be toxic to dogs and cats in very low doses. Yes their livers can process it. The recommended dosage is 2.5 mg/lb every 12 hours. Now the dosage has a very small safe window so there are much better choices. It is only a choice if you have no access to a vet in the short term. 3rd Answer: NO Ibuprofen should NEVER be used with dogs or cats. You can use buffered aspirin instead. The dog should be taken to a Veterinarian to be checked out. The Vet can then recommend the appropiate medication. Ibuprofen is never a CHOICE for dogs or cats.
