human medicine

[pomeranian]

is it okay to give human medicine to a pomeranian dog ?

[andy hughes]

No - drugs that have one effect on humans, can have very different, and potentially fatal consequences for animals - e.g. morphine, which is a relaxant for humans, is a stimulant for cats. If your dog is ill, see your vet, and get a proper diagnosis and treatment.

You MUST get your dog to a vet.

Sheila, I'm really dismayed that you still haven't taken that wee thing to the vet, it's now well over 24h since your first post, and if you're worried enough about it to consider giving human medicine, surely a trip to the vet is called for?? As I said before, go to the RSPCA or PDSA if you can't afford a vet, just make the animals welfare priority no. 1.
