My cat ate my vitamin D pills. Is it an emergency? What should I do?

Thank you for submitting your question regarding your cat. I would recommend contacting Animal Poison Control. They have a pet database where they can enter you pet's weight and tell you if this is a toxic amount and guide you on what you would need to do or signs to watch for in your pet. I hope this information helps! https://www.aspca.org/pet-care/animal-poison-control

It could potentially cause serious toxicity. Blackie should be seen by your veterinarian or at the nearest veterinary ER. If the ingestion was less than 2 hours ago, vomiting can be induced via injection. Activated charcoal may be given after to further decrease absorption. Kidney function should be monitored to confirm no damage has been done.

The dose of D3 ingested, 0.0125mg, will likely not pose a risk of serious toxicity. The dose of calcium is within published therapeutic ranges and should not cause a toxicity either. You can monitor for lethargy, increased thirst or urination and GI upset at home. Symptoms typically occur between 12 and 36 hours after ingestion. See your veterinarian if necessary.

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.

I would recommend making the dog vomit. You can try hydrogen peroxide at home or take him to a vet for them to induce vomiting. Usually dogs will vomit if they ingested the pills in the last hour or two. Fultium is a vit D supplement. My concerns is that it might decrease the Calcium released by the body and interfere with the hyperparathyroid gland. If you cannot get her to vomit I would recommend taking her to a vet. It is very important to monitor her for eating,drinking, defecating and seizure activity. IF at any time she is acting abnormal or not herself I would highly recommend taking her to a vet.

You will need to find a vet to make your kitten regurgitate the pill. Call your vet's office and you will get emergency information on the answering machine. This is life threatening. Please take her to a vet , even if it means driving to another town. Here are emergency vets near Selkirk: https://tinyurl.com/y8nd6fce

Hello. Neither one of these medications is toxic to cats in a one time dose. If Louis vomits at some point, it should be a one-time occurrence, but the omeprazole works as a stomach protectant in cats, just like in people, so he will be just fine. Thanks for contacting Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
