Can you give a dog tramadol and aspirin?

Answer 1

No - you should never give a dog aspirin or any other human over-the-counter pain medication (Tylenol, Advil, Aleve, ibuprofin, Motrin, etc.). Dogs are extremely sensitive to the side effects of these drugs and even one pill can be enough to cause a fatal stomach ulcer.

Prednisone is a powerful drug that is only given with a veterinarian's prescription. Overdosing can be fatal with this drug as well.

Answer 2

Yes, in careful doses. If your dog has a bleeding wound, do not give aspirin, as it is a blood thinner. Get to a vet for a more appropriate pain medication.

The best method for dosage is 5 mg to 10 mg per pound of the dog's weight every 12 hours. Aspirin can be hard on a dog's stomach so watch for any vomiting or stomach upset and discontinue the aspirin. It is NOT meant for long-term treatment of pain management. Try to use Baby Aspirin as the dosage is much smaller and easier to deal with.

Answer 3

No - aspirin is extremely toxic to dogs and you can cause a fatal stomach ulcer with it. Ciprofloxacin is a high-power antibiotic only available with a prescription, so you shouldn't even have some available to give to your dog. Regardless, giving ciprofloxacin to your dog can cause severe side effects, including massive diarrhea (which can be fatal) and severe allergic reactions.

Answer 4

Tramadol is a controlled substance, so you can only give it to your dog if a veterinarian has written a prescription for this. To give tramadol without a prescription is to divert drugs, which is a felony in the United States.

Aspirin should never be given to dogs - it can cause fatal stomach ulcers and is not that effective for controlling pain in dogs anyway.

In summary, no you cannot give a dog tramadol and aspirin. If you feel your dog would benefit from pain medication, you need to talk to your veterinarian. There are safe pain medications for dogs available but they require a veterinary prescription to access them.
