My cat ate a naproxen pill. Is it an emergency? What should I do?

The intoxication depends on the dosage ingested. By the sound of it, if they ingested them they would have shown signs by now especially regarding the Venlafaxine. You can find clinical signs you should notice and relative treatment here at this link http://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/poison/effexor/ I would recommend to take them to your veterinarian as soon as possible, earlier than three hours (emergency clinic) if you notice anything compatible with the signs listed in that link. No home remedies are available unfortunately.

She needs to be seen by your veterinarian or at the nearest veterinary ER immediately. Either can induce vomiting via injection to get the pills up and out. Activated charcoal may be given afterwards to further decrease absorption. This is most successful if done within 2 hours of ingestion. Given current events, you may need to drop her off then wait for your veterinarian to call you to discuss exam findings, treatment options and follow up plans.

Roscoe should be taken to the nearest veterinary ER. Vomiting can be induced via injection to get the pill out before it is digested and absorbed. Activated charcoal may be administered afterwards to further reduce absorption. These actions are most successful when done within 2 hours of ingestion. Medication to prevent ulcers may be dispensed and kidney function may need to be monitored. https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/aleve/

Cats have a decreased ability to metabolize acetaminophen in their liver, making them much more susceptible to poisoning than most other species. Even though your cat may not show any symptoms yet, its liver may have been damaged. THIS IS AN EMERGENCY You need to take your cat to a veterinarian now.

Naproxen can be extremely poisonous to dogs, and have a very low safety margin (which means it is very potent). You need to take Atticus to a vet immediately.

Most cases of toxicosis occur in dogs that are repeatedly given Naproxen. I did find in an article online (the link is below if you want to read the entire article) that "The APCC data suggest that a one-time dose of 7 mg/kg or greater can cause clinical signs of GI irritation and ulceration (vomiting, diarrhea, melena, anorexia), whereas azotemia (elevation of kidney levels) is possible at doses ranging from 13 to 15 mg/kg." Based on your dogs weight of 44 pounds, if he ate one 250 mg tablet then the dose would have been 12.5 mg/kg. The best thing would be to have your vet check kidney values 24-48 hours after the ingestion to make sure all values are normal. Hope this information helps! http://veterinarymedicine.dvm360.com/toxicology-brief-naproxen-toxicosis-dogs?id=&pageID=1&sk=&date=

Hello. Cora consumed the equivalent of 9.7 mg/kg of naproxin. We begin to see GI signs like vomiting & diarrhea, possibly with blood at 7 mg/kg & kidney damage at 13 mg/kg. Since there are other factors that may impact how badly Cora may react to the medication, including any preexisting conditions, dehydration, etc., I think it would be prudent to take Cora to an emergency clinic for decontamination & any possible treatment. I think she should be fine, but better safe than sorry. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
