Without a veterinarian's prescription or recommendation, none - human medications are dosed out for humans, and dogs generally need a much smaller dose. In certain situations, you can use over-the-counter anti-histamine drugs on dogs, but the dose needs to be set by your veterinarian specifically for your dog.

How do you clip my purebred pugs toenails?

Either take them to a groomer and have them do it (easy), or buy a pair of clippers for yourself, and clip them off just like human fingernails (cheap). NO NO NO you do not clip them like human fingernails!!!!! A human finger and a dog "toe" are COMPLETELY different. The best thing to do is take the dog to the vet. or to a groomer and ask them to let you watch and to show you what to do and what NOT to do. If you cut the nail to short you will hurt the dog and there will be A LOT OF BLOOD!!!!!
