Is Vitamin E cream toxic if my small Boston Terrier licked it?

You are correct in thinking so. She would need to ingest much more in order to be at risk of serious toxicity. At worst, you may see some mild stomach upset if anything at all. A short fast followed by a bland diet for a few days should resolve minor upset.

Overall it’s not toxic but it can cause some minor gastrointestinal upset depending on how much she actually ingested. This means she could have some mild vomiting and/or diarrhea. If you notice any of that then she should be examined by your vet.

It is not toxic but not beneficial to the wounds if she licks it right off. It sounds like you need a large e collar since she can still reach all these places. Try to apply the medicine right before you feed her, as this may distract her some. Go to your vet tomorrow or the pet store and get a large e collar so she cannot reach the areas.

The type of product is not really toxic, especially in small quantities like that. You could see some mild stomach upset or mouth irritation, but that is unlikely. You can try to squirt some water in her mouth to rinse it out. Signs of a problem would be drooling, licking lips, or wanting to eat, but I don’t feel this is likely to,happen.

If your dog did not eat the actual tube and only the content, there should be no problem as non of these ingredients is toxic. However, there is a possibility that Max may get diarrhea. If that happens, you can do the following: Take your dog off food for about 12 hrs, then feed bland food such as boiled rice with boiled white chicken meat in small quantities over several feeds a day. Do this for a day, then start replacing small quantities of rice with his normal food over the next two days until he is at the normal quantity of his regular food. If the diarrhea does not go away by the end of the third day, or your dog is lethargic and dehydrated,you will need to take your dog to a veterinarian for an exam.

Hello, and thank you for your question. Ingesting a bit of the antibiotic cream may cause some temporary upset tummy symptoms (diarrhea or vomiting). If you notice this, try taking away his food for 8 hours, and then start offering small, frequent meals of a bland diet such as boiled chicken and white rice. If Snowy becomes lethargic or disinterested in food, I would recommend taking him to the vet in case he needs further medical attention. In the future, when applying the cream, try to keep Snowy occupied with toys and play for about 10 minutes before letting him lick his skin. This should be enough time for the product to absorb in the skin so any licking will not cause any significant ingestion. I hope this helps, and that Snowy does well!

This would definitely not be enough to cause any major problems and likely won't cause any problems at all. Benzoyl peroxide primarily toxic as an irritant, so at-most she may vomit, but I would not expect anything more than this. I hope that helps to make you less concerned and all goes well with Bella.
