My dog has cough and fever after distemper. Can I give paracetamol?

Discontinue giving the paracetamol immediately. Paracetamol (acetaminophen) can be toxic to dogs if given in large amounts. Please have him rechecked by your veterinarian. Tell the doctor exactly how much paracetamol your dog has been given.

I would recommend against using this as a pain medication. Please read the following article ( https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/tylenol/ ). I would consult with your veterinarian for recommendations on what to use. You can get a prescription medication from your veterinarian that is much safer. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

It has potential to cause respiraory symptomas and GI problems and in advanced cases it attacks the nervous system and cause a head bob and seizures. It is not always a fast progression, so they can be sick for weeks before getting better or worse. It is a viral infection so suportive care is all you do to wait for their body to fight the virus off. make sure the secondar bacterial infections stay under control with antibiotics, keep the fever under control and make sure they are eating and drinking well

Paracetamol and any other human fever meds are toxic to dogs, do not use them! If Brudo is not eating he must be very ill, you need to take him to the vet ASAP in order to get it checked and treated, he might be suffering from an infection that will require an antibiotic course.

No, I'm sorry, but you can't give Miki the paracetamol. It is toxic to dogs. In fact, it is very unwise ever to give a medication formulated for humans to a dog. as many can cause serious side effects. Your best bet is to take no action until he is seen by the vet.

No, you cannot give her baby aspirin or any other human anti fever medications as most are very toxic to dogs, as she is running a fever and has nasal discharge it's pretty obvious she is suffering from an infection and will need to be taken to the vet ASAP, she will need an antibiotic course.

You don't need to give him any medications at the moment. human meds to reduce fever are not suitable for dogs and medications to reduce fever are rarely given in case of mild fever. if your dog does not seem to get better within 48 hours you should take him to the vet in order to get it checked and treated.
