Can Valium kill a dog

Answer 1

Yes, if it receives too much at one time. Valium is used by veterinarians to sedate dogs, but it is generally not sent home with owners. If your dog has accidentally ingested some valium, it is recommended that you immediately call your veterinarian and see if you should bring the animal in for emergency treatment.

Answer 2

Do not use valium to euthanize a dog. It will almost certainly have unintended consequences, as valium is not meant to be used in this manner. Furthermore, attempting to do this could cause the animal a great deal of suffering. The only humane form of euthanasia is administered by a veterinarian, who uses a 2-step process to sedate the dog, then stop its heartbeat.

Answer 3

Yes, Valium (diazepam) can be toxic and potentially fatal to dogs if ingested in high doses. Symptoms of Valium poisoning in dogs may include lethargy, incoordination, respiratory depression, and coma. It is important to seek immediate veterinary attention if you suspect your dog has ingested Valium.
