Very, very few and only under a veterinarian's supervision and instruction. Dogs are not little humans and they can and do react very differently to human medications. Over-the-counter pain medications (Tylenol, Advil, aspirin, Aleve, etc.) are particularly dangerous to dogs as just one pill can cause a stomach ulcer and severe internal bleeding in dogs.

If you suspect your dog has a medical condition, the best option is to take your dog to a veterinarian and have the vet prescribe the appropriate medication. Unless you are a veterinarian yourself, you may be entirely wrong about what is happening to your dog and trying to fix the wrong problem at home with the wrong medications.

It is never a good idea to give your dog human medicine, or any medication that was not prescribed by a vet. Rather just take your dog to the vet so he/she can prescribe the proper medicine. Othwerwise, human medicine can kill your dog.
