Tylenol will kill a dog, as will ibuprofen. You may give a 60 lb dog 1 unbuffered aspirin. This should only be given once in a great while because it is hard on their stomachs. If your dog needs a pain killer more often, go to your vet and get a pet friendly pain killer like Rimadyl. Even Rimadyl should be given in moderation.

What does 37.50 325mg mean?
Im guessing that if you look closely, this is labelled as 37.5/325mg. This means there are 2 medications in the prescription. 325 mg is a common dosage for aspirin and tylenol. The abbreviation for aspirin is ASA. The abbreviation for tylenol is APAP. However, it could be a combination for ANY number of medication combinations. Pain medication is just a very common combination med. So for example, if a person was taking Percocet, the label would read 5/325mg oxycodone/APAP. This would mean that each tablet has 5 mg of the narcotic oxycodone and 325mg tylenol. This dosage (37.5/325 mg) is a common dosage for ultracet (ultram and tylenol).

What are the numbers on a Vicodin caplet?
Vicodin is an opiate analgesic compound drug, and has 2 primary components, Hydrocodone, and Acetaminophen (Tylenol). Tylenol and Aspirin are very common combinations with opiates, though aspirin is used less than Tylenol for longer term patients. The lower number on the pill indicates the amount of Hydrocodone in milligrams; the larger number is the amount of Tylenol in the caplet, in milligrams. It's extremely important to note the Tylenol dosage in the caplet if you're taking OTC Tylenol at the same time to augment the Vicodin to help your pain levels. You must take into account the total dosage amount of Tylenol in your system over a 24 hour period so you don't exceed the daily limit, which has been lowered from 4 to 3 grams per day.
