Is there a risk of too frequently using hydrogen peroxide to make your dog vomit?
If the dog has swallowed something harmful, first call the vet . If the vet says to induce vomiting, mix hydrogen peroxide with some lukewarm water. Should use 1 tsp for every ten pounds that the dog weighs. It should take at least 15-20 minutes until the dog finally does vomit. Please note that I have been advised by some vets that hydrogen peroxide can damage the esophagus and cause bleeding and other problems. Of course, if you are in dire straights and cannot reach an emergency vet, this may be your only option. Just be careful!
How do you treat chemical poisoning by mouth?
Rinse the mouth out immediately and phone poison control. If you can't talk have someone tell the person what type of chemical it is. It seriously depends on the kind of toxic substance adminstered. Treatment is done by many ways including drinking large amount of fluids like water, inducing vomiting if there is no risk of aspiration, sometimes using gastric lavage if the patient is in coma, or using specific antidote for the toxin. But it is strongly recommended that in case of poisoning by any way, to call the nearest toxicolgy center or hospital for the appropriate emergency treatment for each case. Do not induce vomiting. First things first. Call 911. Call poison control center if you have it. Do not induce vomiting on chemical poisons because they can cause burns on the mouth, throat and esophagus. If they vomit this caustic material back up, now they can burn the area twice. Not a good idea and safer to have it pumped out at the emergency room.
